		<description>As evidence that angels and much of the early stage money remains optimistic, we held our SE Private Equity Conference at the end of April.  44 companies participated with over 100 investors in attendance.   Many companies reported getting funding from the event.  This was in the midst of the turmoil when most were uncertain what would happen with the stock market and the housing market, yet they still attended and better yet, invested.  To hear the testimonials and learn more about the results, go to www.sePrivateEquity.org
