SERIES A/B INVESTORS IN THEUNITED STATES
Data shows that while more companies are poised to raise Series A/B funding in the middle of the country,
most VC firms are concentrated on the coasts and sparsely distributed in the rest of the country. Access to
capital is one of the biggest roadblocks faced by companies located in the middle of the country. Through
UNMET Conferences we are trying to overcome this roadblock by providing an opportunity for companies
to meet investors from all over the country in key venture ecosystems, such as Denver and Phoenix.
