Q. What is EntreAlliance?

EntreAlliance is an Idea Network where members can network with another, find new partners, ideas and/or funding. We help inventors, innovators and entrepreneurs (collectively known as Innovators) get their ideas in front of angel investors, venture capital firms and/or businesspersons whom they never would have thought they had access to.

EntreAlliance also helps investors find quality, pre-screened ideas and Innovators outside their current circle. Investors have access to various network tools and may utilize the "two-way" mirror while seeking out Innovators.

Q. What are some other advantages of the EntreAlliance network?

EntreAlliance only allows authorized, screened members into the network. We screen all applicants with automated and manual security procedures, to ensure everyone feels comfortable with whom they are communicating. Members will not have to deal with spam, bogus profiles or a cluttered network.

The Idea Network also contains many advanced features, but is packaged in a way that emphasizes simplicity and easy of use. The network will not overwhelm you or make you feel like you are getting lost in the site. - Features include video chat, video conferencing, Idea Sessions with collaboration, with integration to Twitter, Blogger, LiveJournal, Tumblr, WordPress and other websites.
