How to approach VC and get him/her hear what we have to say/offer?
We're a new London based startup (called Elleo Ltd.) and we have developed a very interesting piece of technology, semantic engine, a prototype that actually works!
Please let me also mention that this is no semi-functional semantic engine (as we've all seen around) but a real thing on which our team (we are 3 world champions in programming!) worked for over a year.
We believe with our hearts that there's a need for our technology and that we can truly create a new mean, a meaning that will make the world a better place.
Sadly, as you probably already all figured, we're all technical guys and we have no idea on how to "business-talk" and lift our startup off the ground, so that we can carry on working on this full-time.
We've been reading a lot (and I mean a lot) on startups, VCs, etc.., we've even attended pricy Next Web conference in Amsterdam but we still didn't quite figure out how to approach VCs and get them hear what we have to say.
I would very much appreciate if anyone can give us an advice on this.
Also, if you'd be interested learning more about our exciting project, please contact me on jparicka(at)gmail.com. Otherwise, wait for a demo which should come out shortly.
Thank you,
Jan
