Science of Success: Who Gets Funded, and Why?

​No one builds something great on their own. Why do some companies get backed while others get overlooked? Often, it comes down to relationships: the trust you earn with investors, funders, and partners, and the honest feedback that sharpens your story.

​On Tuesday, October 27, our speakers will share hard-won insights on raising capital and securing grants, including how to grow the relationships that open doors. Whether you’re building a company, investing, or considering either, this evening is for you. No experience required, and everyone is welcome.

​Come for the conversation, stay for the food, drinks, and a chance to connect.

​We will also host a donation drive for The Center for Great Expectations in North Brunswick, New Jersey. They are looking for donations of Johnson & Johnson Head to Toe Baby Wash and Baby Lotion. Target and Walmart gift cards will also provide immediate needs when new residents arrive.
