Two tidbits: Did you know that two “funds” closed in the month of August? More than $20 million was raised by two local venture capital funds both focusing on information technology related new ventures. Did you know that five companies have raised more than $1 million in risk capital from Omaha over the last eight months? Things are starting to pick up on the Prairie – this is a perfect opportunity and venue to learn more in a casual environment.
