Angel Rising 2016: Investor Education Symposium
In order for a startup ecosystem to flourish, the investor base needs to mature and evolve in lock step with the entrepreneur base. Angel Rising conference aims to help a new class of investors by providing the education they need to succeed, grow and mature, just as entrepreneurs do. The conference takes place on April 30 at NYUAD Campus, Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi Conference Center Auditorium (A6).
