NEW YORK – CLC Advisors, LLC today announced that CEO & Founder Cindy Chin will again be attending Four Years From Now (4YFN), the entrepreneurship and innovation arm of the Mobile World Congress next week in Barcelona, Spain.
4YFN is about how mobile technologies are changing the way people do business and how these businesses will impact lives. The startup culture is the driving force for change in economy and business fabric, and one of the main drivers to improve citizens’ quality of life. 4YFN has consolidated as a business platform for the global tech startup community. The goal is to help startups, investors and corporations to create lasting connections.
“4YFN is a premier marketplace for Europe’s up and coming startups and technology innovation. In conjunction with the Mobile World Congress, 4YFN brings together investors, business leaders, corporate executives, and public officials into one of Europe’s innovative startup ecosystems. We are seeing a rise in corporate VC funds up to $100MM with the purpose of funding companies that may add to their core businesses. There are more acquisitions than IPOs right now in the markets and strategically, it makes sense that corporate VCs will incubate startups to increase diversification and strengthen their verticals. All eyes are on what is happening at 4YFN with over 94,000 people in attendance in 2015, and it is a springboard for entrepreneurs, corporate executives, and investors that may otherwise be missed,” says Ms. Chin. “I’m delighted to be invited to attend for the second year in the row by the organizers of 4YFN and MWC16. It’s going to be thrilling to see the next wave of startups and revisit startups from last year to see how they have progressed in the past year.”
Four Years From Now (4YFN) will be take place in Barcelona on 22 – 25 February 2016. Register here and join the conversation on Twitter at #4YFN.
