PLENARY 2: Get a Scoop of the Action (Deal, No Deal, Ante Up: Financing Outside of the Box) featuring Fred “Chico” Lager, Ex-CEO, Ben & Jerry’s

Even without the benefit of the Internet and social media it was arguably the first crowdfunded public stock offering. Here’s the story of how it unfolded and the lessons learned that are applicable to entrepreneurs fundraising today.
