New Economy New Rules: Inside the Deal
Description: In February, Smarter Remarketer -- a marketing automation and intelligence platform for online retailers -- secured $7 million in venture financing in a round led by Boston-based Battery Ventures. Battery has a long history of investing in companies based in Central Indiana, including ExactTarget, Angie’s List and Consona Corp.
Join us for a discussion with executives from Smarter Remarketer about the process, preparation and execution that it took to secure this investment, as well as other funding efforts. Christopher Day, one of the area’s foremost tech deal funding and M&A insiders, wasn’t directly involved with the Smarter Remarketer deal, but will offer an investment banking perspective and compare and contrast other recent deals during the discussion.
