Gust, the investor relations platform connecting high-growth entrepreneurs and active early stage investors, and DiligentDeal, a conference organizer in the early stage investment space, will host their first annual conference, Venture Forward 2012, in New York City on Thursday, June 20. The day-long event, taking place at the New York Academy of Sciences, will convene the country’s leading angel investors and early-stage venture capitalists to collaborate and share industry insights on the rapidly evolving early stage investing market through a series of interactive panel discussions, keynote addresses and fireside interviews.

“The landscape of equity funding for early-stage entrepreneurial ventures is undergoing a revolution. Venture Forward 2012 will bring together the industry’s leaders for a high-level knowledge exchange about the challenges and opportunities facing early stage investors, and the rapidly changing legislative and economic landscape,” said David S.
