As part of EdgeLink’s continued involvement in the growth of the Denver area community, we are assisting in the promotion and communication of the upcoming Rockies Venture Club (RVC) conference on October 8th and 9th. Currently, RVC’s membership is 450+ members and growing. They have helped companies raise over $5 Million in investment capital in the last 6 months, and they continue to create new jobs at a rate of one per week. RVC, a club that connects investors, service providers, and entrepreneurs, is staging the Colorado Capital Conference on October 8th and 9th. The 24th Annual Colorado Capital Conference is a 2-day event, which gives entrepreneurs and investors the opportunity to meet in person, learn, and collaborate within workshops, breakout sessions, and specialized networking groups.

“RVC focuses on the complete continuum of fostering Colorado’s economic development, ultimately impacting employment”, as stated by Nicole Gravagna, RVC’s Director of Operations. “Many start-ups make the mistake of hiring without learning how to hire well. This can result in costly poor choices and delays in milestones. Finding the right people to grow the team is imperative to success. We hope that companies will consult a specialist like Edgelink to help make great hiring choices.”

At EdgeLink, we are very excited about what RVC brings to the community and to the Colorado region as a whole. RVC’s commitment to the essential building blocks of new companies’ success is unprecedented when looking at their dedication to Colorado start-ups. As the momentum continues to stage more and more opportunity for new and existing businesses, EdgeLink is proud to a contributing partner to the overall success of the RVC programs. As part of our allegiance to the local start up community, EdgeLink has committed to help fund the economic growth by donating a portion of all proceeds from RVC companies back to the RVC organization. In line with our mission statement of “being in the business to positively impact the lives of the people and companies we touch”, Edgelink is elated to have the opportunity to be giving back to the local business community.
