Middle Market Deals and how to buy, sell and raise capital from $5 to $500 million

Paul Allen is the visionary founder of Funding Universe, now run by my friend Brock Blake.

Paul describes Funding Universe this way:

The mission of FundingUniverse.com is to help entrepreneurs and angel investors find each other. I teamed up with web developer Trent Miskin to launch the original service for Utah (FundingUtah.com) with financial backing from David Bradford, former General Counsel for Novell. Brock Blake joined as CEO in mid-2005 and Grow Utah Ventures and Provo Labs invested in the Series A round in 2006. The company is growing fast and has almost 1,000 registered angel investors and more than 8,000 entrepreneurs. We have web sites in all 50 states and offer our popular speed-pitching events in many locations. Organized angel groups use FundingUniverse technology to attract business plans and rate them.

Paul recently posted about the successes of some of the companies who have participated in the Funding Universe programs.
