Capital Factory Extends Deadline for Entrepreneurs

The applications for Capital Factory for the 2009 year are rolling in, but many entrepreneurs are asking for some extra time to prepare their applications. You can apply to the program using the online application, and the new deadline is April 3rd. If you look at the application form, you can see that you don’t need a massive business plan to apply.  Become a fan of Capital Factory on Facebook, or get your questions answered on GetSatisfaction.

Most young companies are excited by the cash component of the program, but those truly in the know understand the value of the mentorship in the program. Our mentors have started and grown some of the most successful companies in Central Texas. If you know of somebody that is trying to grow their technology company, please forward information on the program to them.

If you think that you could never have a chance of getting in, you really do! We expect 60-100 applications, and our goal is to pick 3 winners. You might have a 5% chance just by applying! During the 10-week summer program, you will make some incredible progress as a company. Don’t let this opportunity pass you by!
