Sign up as an Investor* Patron

*For Investor Patron sponsorship purposes, “investor” is defined as an organization whose investments are tracked in an official venture capital metrics database (e.g. Ventureone, Venture Economics) or an angel investor who has made an equity investment during the last two years. If an organization has only investment activity as its objective, the organization is required to pay a $500 fee and be a Business Alliance member to register for the patron sponsorship. However, if an entity is party of a larger organization that has non-investment activities, it must pay its tax-deductible Business Alliance membership fee plus $2800 (corporate sponsor rate) to be listed with other Investor Patrons.

 

The Business Alliance Grubstake Breakfast Program is a partnership activity between the Business Alliance and George Mason University—its School of Management, School of Information Technology and Engineering, and Mason Enterprise Center.
