Offline vs. Online Meetings Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In running a university angel network, consider both offline and online meetings for the members.\xa0 Online meetings allow you to run education sessions, screening meetings, and pitch sessions along with diligence follow-up. Since the members need not travel to campus, these can be short half-hour calls or longer ones.\xa0 These meetings can be set up during the workweek and recorded as well for those who can\u2019t attend the live session. Offline meetings provide face-to-face interaction with the students. One of the main benefits of an angel network is the education experience the student receives. Face-to-face meetings provide better opportunities for this experience. You can run social events around athletic events, business plan competitions, entrepreneurship days, and more. Consider two major offline events per year, one in the fall and one in the spring. Align with other activities on campus to drive a larger turnout. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.Let\u2019s go startup something today. ___________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: \xa0 Check out our other podcasts here: \xa0 For Investors check out: \xa0 For Startups check out: \xa0 For eGuides check out: \xa0 For upcoming Events, check out \xa0 For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group\xa0\xa0 Please , share, and leave a review.
