Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 is THE premier event designed specifically to give you the opportunity to stay on top of the latest emerging technologies, products and startups.

Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 offers the chance to witness the launch of up to 30 pre-screened new product offerings, which are built and ready to hit the market. Unlike business plan pitch events, Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 showcases real products - but before the market and competition have seen them. This provides you with the forum to discover new products and startups, at that critical time when ideas turn into realities and possibilities into opportunities.

So join us on June 5 at the Microsoft Campus in Mountain View, for the chance to uncover new products, trends, opportunities and partners. Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 is the only event of its kind in the San Francisco Bay area, where you get a preview of the people, products and technologies that will shape the future.

The Selection Process
Last year over 150 companies from New York, Colorado, Finland, New Zealand, Australia, Spain, and the UK, as well as from the West Coast of the USA submitted executive summaries for the opportunity to pitch at the inaugural Launch: Silicon Valley in November 2006. Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 will use a similar process of evaluating every submission by at least 2 members of the Advisory Board, composed of leading members of the Silicon Valley investment community, to bring you the 30 most exciting products offerings from the best emerging technology startups.

The Pitches
Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 will put presenting companies in the spotlight, giving them 10 minutes to make a believer out of you. And if these high energy pitches leave you only thirsting for more, you can meet the startup teams one-on-one during our regular networking breaks.

The Deals
At Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 you’ll have the chance to meet the people who created the products you just saw launched on stage, to answer your questions one-on-one. You might even be able to explore the potential for a deal or two.
