- Darren Womer, CEO, National Capital Companies

CONNECTpreneur is the region's leading event for bringing together people who will drive our economy forward.

Not every investor and startup meeting in town is worthwhile. I would run through walls to get to yours though.

You pulled off a great conference. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for inviting me!!

- John Backus, Managing Partner, New Atlantic Ventures

Thank you again for the invitation to CONNECTpreneur. It is so incredible to watch the Forum become THE entrepreneurship/investor forum in the Washington, DC metro area, and maybe the entire Mid-atlantic region.

- Dennis Defensor, Senior VP, Worldwide Sales, OROCK Technologies
