• “Alternative IPO’s & Reverse Mergers for Smaller Companies and Pre-Revenue R&D Companies” to be held on Monday, December 12th at 11:05 am.

This panel examines what Israeli companies need to know about alternative routes to the public markets in the United States and how to position themselves favorably to United Statesinvestors.

Mr. Bukzin stated, “We are excited to be participating in DealFlow Media’s Alternative Finance Conference. We are anxious to explore opportunities to assist Israel based companies in accessing the U.S. capital markets. Our capital markets have an appetite for high growth technology companies and that’s exactly what Israeli entrepreneurs are focused on. “

DealFlow Media’s Alternative Finance Conference is a forum for discussion of unconventional sources of capital for Israeli companies. This event transcends familiar dialogue on venture capital and private equity and dives right into the topics that Israeli companies aren’t familiar with – alternative public offerings, PIPEs (Private Investment in Public Equity), Registered Directs, Confidentially Marketed Public Offerings (CMPOs), SPACs (Special Purpose Acquisition Companies), alternatives to venture capital and structured debt investments.
