Helpful Hints for Posters
- Success stories that involve multiple “touches” by your TBED efforts are eligible (for instance, university research funding you provided to a university leads to a spinout company that is housed at an incubator you support/run and receives entrepreneurship assistance from your programs and equity investments from your financing programs.)
- Remember you are presenting information to your peers. Posters that read more like marketing and PR pieces are strongly discouraged as they will most likely be poorly received. Emphasis should be on facts and impacts not hype.
