Follr To Sponsor Flight 2 Freedom 4.0

We are pleased to announce that Follr is once again sponsoring “Flight 2 Freedom!”

The event, for entrepreneurs, investors and philanthropists “is designed to enhance collaboration between the vibrant entrepreneurial community in Bay Area and other groups around the world.” Follr CEO, Stephen Fells, has spoken at previous events.

The event, which is being held in San Ramon, CA on August 26th, is organized by George and James Salter of Blossom Ventures. The company works with well-managed companies that need growth capital or strategic advice regarding potential acquisitions or the sale of their businesses. They focus on innovative technologies or approaches to products, systems and services from businesses that have the potential for both superior investment returns and meaningful community impact.

George explains:

“We believe that the success of the region is due to the open communication between academics, entrepreneurs, government officials, financiers and other specialists. We plan to propel the story along in an efficient manner by pre-planning private meetings and group introductions within a general networking format. All the invitees will be instant contributors that want to see the entrepreneurial and philanthropic communities grow. “
