EBAN in co-operation with LBAN held their annual Winter University last October in Luxembourg.
Over 100 participants attended the one-day event and among the topics discussed, the actual economic situation could not be left out.
In his final statement Anthony Clarke confirmed that it is the right time to make an investment in new and promising projects especially as the financial markets actually do not provide better or no return.
It has also been proved that it is in a downtime period that the most promising investments have been done.
What is your take on this statement that you should try to be greedy when others are fearful and fearful when others are greedy?

Steve & Steve,
on this topic, I’m happy to report that the Croatian Business Angel Network (CRANE - http://www.crane.hr) was created in the spring of this year, thus filling a gap that badly needed filling for startups. In fact the Network has recently backed it’s first project at http://www.uredi.hr.
The time is certainly ripe for angel investing in Croatia - a first generation of enterpreneurs have exited their companies recently and there are ambitious people with good ideas and projects looking for funding.
CRANE is already a part of EBAN and we here in Croatia are looking forward to more news from the world of startups!
