Several major news medias will cover the conference.    Message from previous showcase participant: "I participated in the CINACON 2009 showcase due to a friend's referral. The entire event was way beyond my expectation. Through the showcase, I obtained a lot of great advice from venture capitalists, investors, and many of those relationships are still ongoing today. It also led to angel investment in my early stage startup and solved our cash flow problems at the time. Finally, I owe the CINACON my first opportunity to become a guest lecturer at Stanford University. Overall, I 100% recommend any entrepreneur who is taking his/her venture seriously and wants more exposure as well as great long-term relationships!"
