Capital Formation Committee

Mission Statement

The NVTC Capital Formation Committee's mission is to undertake highly focused initiatives and activities including programs for the benefit of the membership in order to foster economic development in the region, attract the attention of the capital markets to the region and to NVTC members, and to provide NVTC companies with increased access to private and public capital at all levels of financial development.

The Capital Formation Committee helps oversee the following subcommittee events. The collective goal of these subcommittees is to develop and produce targeted events that foster mutual understanding of access to capital at all stages, for all types of companies, and to provide excellent networking opportunities.

  • Meet The Capital Players Series - Monthly event held to introduce new sources of capital and to provide those involved with the region's capital formation activities with a forum to share insights and investing objectives.


  • Private Equity - A series of events each year focusing on topics of interest in angel investing, early and later stage venture capital and leveraged buyouts, as well as mergers and acquisitions and initial public offerings for private equity backed companies.
