Scientia Advisors Management Consultant and Partner, Daniel Poscover, will be a Panelist at MIT Enterprise Forum of Cambridge

Cambridge, MA, October 18, 2007 --(PR.com)-- The Start-Up Clinic consists of an audience of 40-50 people who listen (and react) to two presentations by early stage companies and comments from 3-4 panelists. Many of the presenters have a business plan but have not yet raised money. Some of the companies may have already started making sales. Every company wants to benefit from an outside, experienced view of the business plan and a dry run at an investor presentation.

Panelists review the presenters' business plans which are provided in advance to the panel. Panelists are experienced business people but are not expected to be experts on any of the businesses or technologies described by the entrepreneur or in the plans.

Presenters: Patrick Doyle, Doherty Associate Professor of Chemistry and Daniel Pregibon, Institute for Soldier Nanotechnologies, Department of Chemical Engineering, MIT

Panelists: Daniel Poscover – Partner (Scientia Advisors), Vladimir Slepnev - CSO (Primera BioSystems), Paul Pyzowski -CEO (Network BioSystems), Alain Hanover- Managing Director (Navigator Technology Ventures)
