Early Stage East is the initial venture capital showcase for promising young companies. We serve as a gathering place for entrepreneurs and those organizations funding and servicing them in order to enable them to grow and succeed. Early Stage East is the premier opportunity to meet with the leaders in venture capital, entrepreneurial development and emerging businesses on the East Coast.
Early Stage East was founded in 1998 as a non-profit organization and has grown from a single-day venture capital fair to a year-round series of programs & events. Our events showcase entrepreneurs from up and down the East Coast in order for them to effectively obtain venture capital and successfully start break-away businesses.
