NuQuest and Launchfn Sign Cooperative Referral and Revenue Agreement

November 08, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
November 8, 2007, NuQuest Inc., an Atlanta-based business development firm and through it’s web portal, the NuQuest Capital MatchPoint, today announced the signing of a cooperative business referral and revenue sharing agreement with Atlanta based Launch Funding Network, Inc., (LAUNCHfn), a venture catalyst firm that accelerates the capital raising process for growing companies through preparation and connection through a network of funding sources in the promoted events medium.

The NuQuest-LAUNCHfn agreement calls for collaboration between the two entities that enables capital seekers and providers both an automated platform for introduction as well as a professionally designed event that puts both parties in the same venue to personally interact.

“The Capital MatchPoint clientele numbers are growing and the need for the eventual face to face meeting with investors dovetails perfectly with the LAUNCHfn platform of providing quality investors to view these quality companies in a live setting. Their broad based service offering of investor events such as the NBAI Private Equity Investor Forum are excellent venues to have capital accessed,” said Ken Honeyman, president of NuQuest Inc. “The collaboration between companies listed on the Capital MatchPoint and the funding sources looking for top quality deal flow that LAUNCHfn has access to is a great fit,” Mr. Honeyman stated.

According to Karen Rands, President of LAUNCHfn, “Our core competencies involve positioning companies for investment. We offer many ways to showcase capital seekers to our funding sources. If these companies aren’t quite ready, we work to get them “investor ready” and therefore increase their odds dramatically of connecting with capital and to get the visibility they deserve to complete a funding. Both the Capital MatchPoint and LAUNCHfn are a great source for companies in that regard. The network being built by the Capital MatchPoint is enormous and our intent is to provide a gateway to these groups and enable the introduction of quality deals to quality investors by utilizing our proven methodologies.”
