We know that entrepreneurs need support and connection to make their ventures successful, so let's talk about it. Each month, a host of panelists will get the conversation started, but we want to hear from the Founders and aspiring leaders! Join Betamore and others as we get real with today's entrepreneurs and discuss ways to work together to support them.

January 19th's topic will be Connecting to Capital! After a short time of networking with beer, wine and refreshments, we'll be joined by Jeff Cherry (Conscious Venture Partners) Chris College (TCP Ventures) , Mac Conwell (RareBreed Ventures), and George Davis (Evergreen Advisors) and Deborah Hemingway, PhD (Ecphora Capital) to hear a bit about their experiences with helping Baltimore's entrepreneurs connect to capital, but we want to hear from you!

• What are the biggest barriers to startup founders seeking funds?
