You CAN Find Investors for Hard-to-Fund Tech Projects, Experts Tell Princeton Grads
Tough Tech — technology that’s hard to fund because it’s so complex, takes so long to develop and doesn’t offer the recurring revenue streams that investors love — was the topic of a conversation at Princeton University during its recent virtual reunion.
The discussion, presented by the Princeton Entrepreneurship Council, was moderated by Karen Roter Davis, of Princeton’s class of ’94, who is a director at X, the moonshot factory (Mountain View, Calif.), a Google company.
