Overview
For almost 40 years, the TechAmerica “AeA Classic” has been the premier financial conference for public technology companies.
- Unbiased Forum
Most financial conferences are produced by banks for their own gain. As the non-profit trade association representing the High-Tech Industry, our only goal is to provide a neutral space for technology companies to get the capital they need to keep our industry and country innovative. - Private Presentation Rooms
Instead of presentations to large groups with no opportunity to ask or answer the hard questions, company-to-investor communications occur in private meeting rooms. The average increase in share price of participating companies has been 8% of market cap. - Networking Receptions
C-level technology executives, institutional investors, and analysts will network at two receptions and during hosted meals.
