HTC's Educational Seminar Series (ESS) presents topics relevant to building successful technology businesses.

A moderated panel of industry leaders is providing different perspectives on a variety of topics to assist technology entrepreneurs with fund raising. Many of the ESS topics cover gaps that our advisors in the legal and investment professions often identify when companies approach them in their quest for funding.
