Techneos Uses GPRS Smartphones to Survey Investors at Vancouver Angel Forum
Surveys for the 15th Angel Forum were conducted in real-time using mobile data collection software provided by Techneos® Systems and run on Treo™ 600 and Tungsten™ W smartphones from Palm®. The survey was based on 65 responses, of which 30 were angel investors, 32 presenting companies and three categorized as other. 34 companies and approximately 70 investors were in attendance.
John McDonald, President of Rampworth, was involved in creating the questionnaire. He comments: "This survey provides us with an important snapshot of BC's angel investment community. It also provides both angel investors and companies looking for investment with a rare glimpse into each others' expectations and opinions. Our thanks to Techneos Systems for hosting a flawless survey experience."
"We're excited to demonstrate our wireless data collection technology while also providing value to the Angel Forum and its attendees," comments Mark Cameron, President of Techneos Systems. "As we interviewed individuals at the event, we were able to present the results on an overhead screen in real-time."
