There's always plenty of advice for startups. But, a strong argument can be made that it's far more important to have relevant advice when a company is ready to FINISH up!

Join MITEF of Atlanta to learn the ins and outs of a strong exit. During this lunch and learn event there will be a moderated discussion between Fred Sturgis,  Managing Director of Accel-KKR, Steve Tye, Managing Director, Croft and Bender; and Dave Cormack, CEO, Brightree.
