"Under the Radar"

IBDNetwork (now DealMaker Media), the club for deal makers with a focus on business creation and development holds a series of "Under the Radar" events.  These events bring in four young companies and give them a chance to summarize their business plan in 6 minutes in front a panel of four Venture Capital experts and the audience.  The VCs and the audience get to ask questions and then they vote for the company most likely to succeed.
