Super Early Bird Registration to Expire February 26th for GoldenNetworking.com's Venture Capital Leaders Forum 2010

New York, NY, February 26, 2010 --(PR.com)-- GoldenNetworking.com once again brings together an exceptional faculty of top business minds for Venture Capital Leaders Forum 2010, "Setting the Stage for Transformational Change" (http://www.VCLeadersForum.com), April 16th, Boston, Massachusetts. This will be the forum where industry practitioners will obtain crucial insights for the industry to reach sizeable returns in this new decade; topics to be discussed include:

· Transformational Change for Venture Capital Firms in 2010
· To I.P.O. or not to I.P.O., Is That Really an Option?
· What Successful Fundraising in 2010 Will Require of Your Fund
· Reaching Sizeable Returns in the High-Risk Cleantech Environment

According to NVCA’s Venture View 2010, the Venture Capital industry will begin to see gradual increases in investment levels and exit transactions in 2010, but it will continue to shrink in size over the next five years. Specific areas of optimism include clean technology investing, growth equity and later stage companies, and ongoing opportunities overseas. There is, however, a collective lack of enthusiasm for seed and early stage investing. The jury is still out on whether the investments that have been made in the Internet, wireless and semiconductor sectors ultimately pay off, there is an improvement in fundraising conditions and the I.P.O. market, and Cleantech demonstrates its full potential to carry the industry to a successful 2010.
