Entrepreneurs

ATIF is committed to providing a forum where high-potential entrepreneurs can present their deal terms to serious, engaged Arizona investors. Since May 2007, ATIF members have invested over $2.3 million in Arizona-based technology ventures.

Our investment focus is Arizona-based technology companies seeking $100K to $2M investment in a wide range of industry sectors, including software, medical devices and services, consumer Web, green technology, and biotechnology.

Over 75 ATIF members, guests and partners attend four investor meetings a year in Tempe, Arizona, to view presentations from leaders of the selected ventures. Three promising Arizona-based technology ventures are selected to present at each meeting. Although the deal flow and group meetings are facilitated by ATIF, members invest individually with presenting companies.
