In response to a special invitation issued to Bridge to address the Zurich Stock Exchange, on 31st January Mats Jäderberg and Henrik Ericsson were guest speakers at an event attended by representatives of large venture capital companies, funds and investment banks. They spoke about the Bridge investment network and the success of its investment approach, and the audience was impressed at the pace at which the Bridge investment network is growing, with more than 7,000 independent investors in the community.

Bridge also announced potential future collaboration with Red Alpine, which is an early stage fund based in Switzerland, in order to provide an increased flow of cases for the bridge community, as its own investments move from start up into the growth phase. Following the meeting, Bridge management team members were invited to meet Mr. Farley Duvall, the Managing Director of Red Herring EMEA, over dinner to explore possible joint sponsorship opportunities in Europe during 2008.

Red Herring is a media company which aims to cover global innovation, technology, financing and entrepreneurial activities. Following the meeting, Mats Jäderberg, Head of Bridge European operations, commented: “I am very impressed with the numbers of investors that Bridge has already brought into this unique concept. The fact that we were invited to speak at the Stock Exchange in Switzerland and then sit with the Managing Director of Red Herring EMEA to discuss joint activities is a clear acknowledgement to all members of the Bridge investment community that we are building something quite unique, driven by a hardcore approach to the traditional venture capital market.
