November 13, 2007 | Scottsdale, AZ – Cimarron Capital Partners, a leading manager of regional private equity programs, will provide this year’s $10,000 prize to the top-placing presenter at the 2008 WBTshowcase, to be held March 26-27 in Arlington, Texas.
“Cimarron is a founding partner of the WBTshowcase,” said Paul Huleatt, WBTshowcase CEO. “We’re delighted that this year Cimarron will support the commercialization of world-class platform technologies and seed stage companies by sponsoring our Platinum winner.”
The WBTshowcase is the nation's premier event showcasing the largest collection of undiscovered technologies emanating from top universities, labs and research institutions from across the country and around the globe. Presenting companies and technologies in each year’s WBTshowcase are selected by – and presented to – seasoned venture investors and Fortune 500 licensing scouts representing a variety of industries.
Each year, just one of the 75 carefully selected presenters at the WBTshowcase receives the "Best of Show" award and the event’s $10,000 Platinum prize.
“Our partnership with the WBTshowcase reflects our belief that good venture investments are more likely to arise when entrepreneurs are vigorously supported,” said Robert Heard, Cimarron Managing Director. “We’re proud to support this vital forum for the very best technologies out there.”
