Gesventure Meetings are realized since 1999, year when Gesventure has started

2005This year’s focus goes to Biotechnology, a clearly growing sector in
Portugal, with a big potential interest to the Venture Capital industry.
Some projects have already attracted capital in the biotech innovative
area but still many scientific knowledge is locked inside universities
and student’s heads, away from profitable Business Plans.

Hubert RampersadFounder and CEO of Total Performance Scorecard (The Netherlands)
Hubert Rampersad returns to Portugal to talk us about his most recentbook "Personal Balanced Scorecard" applied to companies of high grouthpotential. Hubert is specially atracted by venture capital as he considersthat recent created companies, developing fast and complex structures, have a good opportunity to apply Balanced Scorecard since thebeggining, instead of developing it later when the companie is alreadyrunning with all its habits.
During his stay in Portugal, this specialist will realize two seminars, one inOPorto and another in Lisbon, dedicated toBalanced Scorecard.

Partnerships
The establishment of partnerships is essential to the realization of Gesventure Meetings. The support given by
many organizations is not only relevant to help on the costs, but also represents the credibility conceded by
our event partners to our six years of hard work.
These are the companies that believed in our work and allowed us
to get where we are actually with over �15 million of raised capital
to 9 projects.
