Foresta is finalist at Princeton University’s annual business plan competition

29 May 2009, Princeton, NJ

Foresta Capital was one of six finalists to present at the 13th annual Princeton Entrepreneurs’ Network (PEN) business plan competition. Andrew Miller, Foresta’s managing director, presented an overview of Foresta’s business plan and fielded questions from judges and the audience. The event, attended by approximately 50 participants, coincided with Princeton’s reunions and was part of an all-day conference hosted by PEN. Also representing Foresta were Camille Rebelo and Alberto Lacouture. The team availed itself of the event to exchange ideas with fellow entrepreneurs and received various inquiries, feedback and professional referrals from attendees.  Competing teams represented a spectrum of industries with ideas spanning internet domain management, anti-fraud systems for pharmaceuticals in developing countries, memory enhancement software, health service franchising and renewable energy certificate trading. The team wishes to thank PEN’s committee members, in particular president Sabrina Parsons, for their dedicated efforts in organizing, sponsoring and facilitating the event. Andrew Miller commented, “The competition was an excellent venue to hone Foresta’s message, establish connections with alumni entrepreneurs and investors, and enjoy an afternoon of stimulating, creative ideas from entrepreneurs committed to making their diverse businesses a reality.” Foresta looks forward to ongoing participation in PEN’s calendar of activities.
