Caachi's fundraising activities

We haven't spent enough time looking for funding. Not because we're not interested or don't need to. Basically because we've been underwater and have barely enough time to come up for air. Now, we need to get started with the fundraising activities so that we can provide better services for our filmmakers and users.

We've started to get out more leaving our computers (yes, there's definitely some computer withdrawal issues) to meet and greet investors and other entrepreneurs. There's no place like San Francisco and Silicon Valley to do that (though arguably, LA may be a better place for a company like Caachi).

Just recently we were invited to present at VCtini, part of the Web 2.0 Expo, where select companies presented to both investors and other Web.2.0 Expo attendees in a cocktail reception environment. The event took place at an art gallery in South Park in San Francisco and it was pretty chaotic at times because multiple companies were presenting at the same time at different iMacs while everyone was drinking. Imagine what the room began to look like towards the end of the four hour presentation & drinking fest.

In a couple of weeks, we'll attend the Startup Camp, an unconference with other startups. You may be asking yourself what a Startup Camp has anything to do with indie films. Events like this help Caachi stay informed about new technologies to deliver the best possible experience for the indie film community.

We've also been selected to present at the Plug & Play Expo in San Jose, which will be basically for the investor, corporate venture arm and media audiences. We're looking forward to both, just need to figure out how to do those things while also attending the San Francisco International Film Festival and keeping Caachi moving forward. In the end though, things somehow end up falling into place and working out.
