Entrepreneurs The two previous EMA fairs already presented more than 2,500 projects from 64 countries. The ideal platform to present your projects to international investors Venture capital Capital is invested in a new company with relatively high-loss risks, but also high-growth potential. Venture capital assists this development in order to create capital gain with the selling of shares. Growing Companies For several decades now, large companies have been facilitating a significant portion of their growth on new international markets. Today, thanks to recent technologies and modern financing tools, globalization is becoming more available to innovative and internationally oriented SME’s. Business Angels Business Angels are direct investors who provide starting capital, management know-how and contacts to fledgling businesses. Primarily interested in the Net Economy, Business Angels are starting to dabble in other sectors with high growth potential (health, tourism, and environment…). Direct Investment Direct investment is participation directly subscribed through a company in the form of stocks or bonds. This differs from indirect investment, which proposes to buy a portion of funds. It is generally agreed that direct investment requires a degree of participation that offers active involvement to the holder. Investment Funds These are collective investments in a diversified lot of values, managed by professionals who share the risks. Institutional Investors These are professional investors that manage substantial amounts of capital (e.g.: banks, insurance, pension funds, etc.). In general, these investors seek low risk investments. However, many are beginning to undertake direct investments. Private Investors In Europe, Switzerland boasts the highest per capita income. The Lake Geneva area shows an exceptional coalescence of private investors open to innovations and to border-free business relations.
