VLAB Founders’ Series is proud to announce this month’s featured expert, mobile and consumer marketing veteran Bob Borchers, Partner at Opus Capital. Bob is focused on investments in mobile applications and services as well as adjacent opportunities in hardware and software. Prior to joining Opus Capital, Bob was part of the original iPhone team at Apple and was instrumental in the development, launch and global expansion of the revolutionary iPhone, iPhone OS, App Store and iPhone 3GS. Before Apple, he pioneered mobility solutions at FusionOne and spent six years at Nokia where he co-founded the Vertu business.

The Founder’s Series event is a great opportunity to learn from the featured expert and to network with other founders.

Several lucky founders will be selected for a turn on the “hot seat,” where each will have will have six minutes of direct interaction with Bob, to ask questions and receive direct feedback, specifically about their startup idea, execution, or positioning. All founders in attendance will benefit from hearing the questions, responses, and overall insight provided by the featured expert. Questions and answers are requested to be kept confidential as a courtesy to founders whose startups are in stealth mode. Thus, the event is not a venue for exposure for startups, so promotional/marketing materials are not permitted and pitching is not allowed. Hot Seat participation is optional, and we encourage all founders to apply even those not interested in being on the Hot Seat.

If you are invited, register by purchasing a ticket and await an email that will provide event night details, including time, location and parking specifics. “Hot seat” semi-finalists will be notified 24 hours prior to event date and the final selection will be announced at event.

Apply early for the best chance at an invitation.
