Free Business Plan Bootcamp offers all-star panel -- sign up today

February 01, 2013·Nancy Dahlberg

Whether you are planning to enter the Miami Herald Business Plan Challenge or want to refine a short business plan you already have, our free Business Plan Bootcamp can help.

Melissa Krinzman, a veteran Business Plan Challenge judge and managing director of Venture Architects, will be leading a panel of experts who will give you advice on crafting a short business plan aimed at grabbing the attention of investors — or judges. If you are entering the Challenge, we encourage you to bring your entry with you because the panel will critique critical sections of the short plan.

Panelists include:

Richard Ginsburg, co-founder of G3 Capital Partners, a mid-market and early stage investment company.

* Steven McKean, founder and CEO of Acceller, a Miami-based tech company, and a Challenge judge.

* Mike Tomas, CEO of Miami-based Bioheart, president of ASTRI Group and a Challenge judge.

You do not have to enter the Challenge to attend our free boot camp, but we hope you will.

Time, date, place: 6:30 p.m. Feb. 26, Miami Dade College, Wolfson Campus Auditorium (Room 1261, Building 1, 2nd floor).

To register: The bootcamp is free, but please register here.
