Some entrepreneurs “get it” when the chance comes for publicity.

Within less than three hours of the CED and WRAL TechWire announcing the opportunity for presenting firms selected to present at the CED’s Tech Venture conference for profiles in WRAL TechWire, three startups sent in their responses.

The series will launch on Monday.

The CED emailed representatives of the 90-some selected companies announced last week about the opportunity shortly after WRAL TechWire published a story about the partnership.

The format was designed to make it simply and easy for companies to respond.

The Q&A questions:

  • What is the focus of your business?
  • What is the top pain point/business application you are seeking to address?
  • What makes it unique?
  • Why should investors be interested in your firm?

Plus, some business facts:

  • Website
  • Email address for inquiries
  • Physical address
  • CEO’s name

Who was first to respond?

Find out Monday.
