TMC and EMBRASE Partner to Host "StartupCamp Telephony" at ITEXPO East 2010 in Miami

TMCnet News


Norwalk, CT, (November 20, 2009) — Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC®), a leading global media company, today announced a partnership with Embrase Business Consulting to jointly host “StartupCamp Telephony at ITEXPO”, a forum where early stage communications companies, investors and on-lookers alike can share information and validate pitches in a live setting.

Collocated with TMC’s very successful ITEXPO conference, StartupCamp Telephony will take place Thursday evening, Jan. 21 at the Miami Beach Convention Center in Miami, Florida – day two of the three-day ITEXPO (News - Alert) event.
This is the inaugural StartupCamp Telephony; the event is dedicated to everything Startup in emerging communications. Companies will learn from each other about the ins and outs of pitching an emerging communications startup. Keynote speakers will offer unique insight into keys to successful commercialization in this fast changing environment. All are welcome. Space is limited, so you need to register soon to attend.
Five startups will be selected to give brief five-minute “pitch” presentations following which the audience will ask questions and provide five to 10 minutes of valuable feedback to the presenting companies, in an open forum format. Early stage companies wishing to be included in the pitch roster need to enter their details on the Startups Attending page.
“ITEXPO was founded more than a decade ago as the venue where communications technology buyers could review and select the absolute leading-edge technologies – many of which were developed and brought to market by emerging startups. In order for these energetic companies to prosper, they first needed someone to believe in them and provide the funding necessary for success,” said Rich Tehrani, TMC CEO.
“Although the IP communications market continues to mature, there remains a powerful legion of startup companies who fuel innovation. We are glad to partner with EMBRASE to provide a forum for these companies to ensure their exciting products are supported to the point where they can become tomorrow’s industry standards,” Tehrani added.
“As we move into an improved economic environment, we are again reminded how critical innovation in communications is to the global economy,” said Larry Lisser (News - Alert), Leader of EMBRASE’s Telephony Practice. Lisser adds, “StartupCamp Telephony has been created to both provide a mantle piece for early stage innovators in the telephony industry and to encourage more entrepreneurs that their ideas can be commercialized. The giants in mobile, cable, voice and business telephony need a place to find the companies that can drive their innovation requirements; StartupCamp Telephony will offer the most innovative ideas a place to pitch their vision”
Registration for StartupCamp Telephony at ITEXPO is now open.
Sponsorship opportunities are also available for companies to showcase their offerings to attendees. Interested parties should contact TMC’s Joe Fabiano for more details.
