FogScreen Selected to Present at Prestigious Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 Event
SAN FRANCISCO, June 4 -- FogScreen today announced its selection as a featured presenter at Launch: Silicon Valley 2007. The June 5th event, organized by The Silicon Valley Association of Startup Entrepreneurs (SVASE), offers 30 emerging technology companies the opportunity to launch new products in front of Silicon Valley's most influential leaders and innovators.
"FogScreen has created a projection screen that is both attention grabbing and visually compelling," said Chris Gill, President and CEO of SVASE. "They have just the right combination of vision and innovation that makes them a perfect fit for Launch: Silicon Valley."
FogScreen was selected from 160 applicants by SVASE's advisory board, who sought the most promising new startups in rapidly growing sectors including information technology, digital media, next-generation Internet, life sciences and clean energy. One highlight of the event will be the Launch: Silicon Valley 2007 award for the "Most Promising New Company" in each of the six presenting categories.
The company's patented technology has created the world's first "walk through" projection screen made of "dry" fog (from tap water), allowing vibrant colors and images to literally float in the air. FogScreen's technology is an ideal fit for trade shows, live entertainment, nightclubs, theme parks or wherever there is a desire to create excitement and visually capture interest.
"Launch 2007 is the perfect venue for FogScreen to showcase our award- winning projection screen," said Jorden Woods, President of US Operations at FogScreen. "We have created a brand new medium that attracts and holds attention, a capability that is the 'holy grail' for marketers, promoters and advertisers."
Launch: Silicon Valley, co-hosted by Garage Technology Ventures, will be held at the Microsoft Campus in Mountain View, CA on June 5th. Selected companies will present on stage for 10 minutes and have the opportunity to explain their products in more detail to the audience during planned networking breaks.
