Presenting Company Testimonials:
“The July 2018 NIBA meeting was an excellent forum for new and exciting companies to present their story to the investment banking community and for investment bankers to get exposure to high quality early stage companies. The variety of companies and their presentations was impressive and the audience was clearly engaged. The NIBA meeting was enjoyable and the forum provided a great venue for efficient exchange of information.”
Linda R. Judge, IP and licensing attorney, Liu, Chen and Hoffman LLP
“I really salute the NIBA event. It was an extremely good networking event, a solid presentation platform to real and interested investor groups and was executed remarkably well. I cannot say enough about Jim Hock and Hanover International team for their efforts in rehearsing the pitch and the setup of one-on-one meetings prior to the day of the event.”
CytoBioScience Incorporated – James Garvin, PhD
CEO
“As an entrepreneur that’s raised > $280M, I’ve been to a lot of conferences. NIBA was the most productive I’ve ever attended. Through the support and sponsorship of Linda Judge, Jim Hock and the Hanover team, I met the right people in the right environment and have started building all the relationships required for our next level of funding. Highly recommended for both entrepreneurs and investors.”
Front Range Biosciences – Nick Hofmeister, CFO & Co-Founder
“The NIBA conference is a fantastic platform to meet quality investors, investment bankers interested in helping to raise capital and/or to gain company exposure. This event is perfect for those companies just getting started or who are already established in the capital markets. It is smaller and more intimate as they typically only have 25 presenters. Jim Hock and the Hanover team did a superb job of prepping our team for the conference. The pre-conference work Hanover did to identify appropriate financial targets to speak with enabled us to get significant value from our time at the conference.”
inno360 – Peter Wengryn, President and CEO
“NIBA was a very important conference for Deep Space Industries. The team at Hanover spent many hours with us and did an extraordinary job of helping us prepare for the event and it paid off. We received interest in our company from over 10 well respected investment banking firms and were able to conduct one-on-one meetings with many of them at the conference. This would have taken us weeks of work to accomplish in any other way. The event was well-organized and the follow-up from Hanover has been a great help.”
Deep Space Industries – Bill Miller, CEO
“The NIBA Conference placed DeviceFarm in front of the right people to start effective capital formation. With Hanover International’s sponsorship and feedback during rehearsals, they helped us to present well and to drive interest to DeviceFarm from the investment community. This conference is an effective way to gain exposure and begin capital raising to reach your next major milestone.”
DeviceFarm, Inc. – Jeffrey Roe, CEO
“The NIBA conference was a first-class event that was well organized with high quality people in attendance. The team at Hanover including Jim, Jerry and Kathy helped us to prepare and practice putting us in a position to be successful. The exposure that inno360 received and the one on one meetings were a great success thanks to Hanover and their contacts.”
inno360 – Peter Wengryn, President and CEO
“NIBA was a fantastic event for Beaconforce. Working with the team at Hanover prior, we were well-prepared and able to use our time there to build relationships with investment bankers. The event itself was well-organized and gave us exposure to quality, targeted investors. Follow up from Hanover before and after the event has been diligent. We’re delighted with the response so far!”
Beaconforce – Laura Maish, Chief Performance Officer
“The National Investment Banking Association (NIBA) conference was an excellent experience for my company and my business career. It was a huge opportunity to meet, for the first time, an impressive number of Investment Banking firms in one day and in one place. NIBA is great opportunity for any company to gain exposure and to begin the process of raising the much needed capital to move their business forward. Thank you!”
Mira Technologies Group – Stelian Ilie, CEO
“I had two investors follow-up with me before noon the morning after the event. I appreciate the high engagement from my one-on-one meetings.”

Conference organizers helped demystify the process and actors by offering a platform for us to tell our story and interact with possible future partners.”
Immusoft – J. Zach Hall, Director of Operations and Business Development
“Mobilogix had the opportunity to present at the NIBA event in New York in June 2017. As an early stage IoT/M2M company, the NIBA forum was a phenomenal platform for the company to gain exposure to the investment community. The event’s organizational structure was conducive to showcasing Mobilogix’ s core competencies and potential to a wider audience, while at the same time having the ability to have one on discussions with relevant parties. Post the event, we have received tremendous interests from various investment bankers, putting the fund-raising exercise on a solid path forward. We are looking forward to our continued engagement with NIBA and its associates.”
Mobilogix, Inc. – Mathi Gurusamy, President and COO
“Digital Social Retail gives the NIBA event 5 stars. The structure of the event was very effective. The presentation setup was in such a way that it enabled each presenting company to capture the attention of a room full of investors. The one-on-one meetings that followed the presentations were a great way to build interest from those investors and further the productive conversation. What we liked about this event was that it put us in front of the right people in such a way that did not feel like a conference but more of a well-planned meeting. We were able to speak to many investors who were interested in helping our company grow and would recommend the NIBA conference to any company who is looking to do the same.”
Digital Social Retail – Barry Stone, President
“Touchjet USA LLC just started financing in the US. We had the opportunity to work with Hanover International Inc. and present at National Investment Banking Association’s (NIBA) New York Conference on June 26-27. We met a new network of investment bankers and entrepreneurs and it created great exposure for Touchjet, our technology, platform and brand. We look forward to following up and keeping NIBA posted on our progress.”

Outstanding connections with a strong investor community interested in early-stage and microcap companies. By far the most efficient way to begin building a network that can benefit the company for years to come.”
Tivic Health – Jennifer Ernst, CEO
“On behalf of Elive Medical, Ltd., I want to thank NIBA [and Hanover] for a very productive and enjoyable NIBA event in New York City in February, 2017. Elive was a presenting company at NIBA, and we met several very promising potential investor companies, as well as many useful support service companies. This was particularly useful for Elive because we are currently a European company who is looking to reincorporate and launch in the United States. NIBA was a wonderful introduction for our European founders to the investment process in the US, and they were able to understand many of the key differences between the US and European investment processes.”
Elive Medical, Ltd. – Paul J. Frankel
“NIBA was a great experience. I was able to meet with investment bankers who focus on small private transactions. This is a very efficient forum for managers to meet future financial advisors.”
Sandstone Diagnostics – Karen Drexler, CEO
“The National Investment Banking Association conference in New York at the end of February 2017 was a great opportunity for our company to gain exposure and drive interest from a range of potential investors and investment bankers. The conference itself was efficient and was very well organized. In addition to being able to hear presentations from a wide range of companies, I found that the one-on-one meetings in the afternoon were a great way to network with interested investment professionals.”
Allysta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. – Henry Hsu, MD, CEO
“NIBA conferences are an excellent way for small companies to introduce themselves to the financial community. The conference attendees, bankers, service providers and investors are accessible. Fund raising is a continuous process. It requires a commitment of time and energy. It is very much like the old shampoo advertisements: Lather Rinse and Repeat. Fund raising is Present, Listen and Repeat. This event helps a presenter build confidence, show corporate accomplishments and build financial relationships. In the business of capital raises, people work with people they know. NIBA gives one a way to know and be known.”
Pulmostics Limited – William Wittmeyer, CEO
“NIBA was Nelumbo’s first introduction to the investment banking world and we could not have had a better platform to launch from. As we continue to develop relationships with the connections made at NIBA, I believe we will look back on the conference experience as an event of high significance to our company’s growth and long term success. Thank you to our friends at Hanover International for sponsoring Nelumbo and helping us prepare for NIBA!”
Nelumbo – Liam Berryman, CEO
“The NIBA New York conference helped us to jumpstart our fund raising activities. Through the NIBA sponsored events, we had a forum to describe our business and our plans for the future. By attending NIBA, we were able to meet one-on-one with the financial community and gain insight and perspective into the Capital Markets while meeting some very strong bankers from Wall Street. This is a must attend event for any company that is looking to move forward with raising capital, going public or just to gain exposure.”
Federal Identity, Inc. – Omar Ahmed
“I attended my first NIBA conference in June 2016 and could not be happier with the result. I am a bit novice and wasn’t sure what to expect but Jim and Lynne helped me through the entire process and I came home with several valuable new contacts and an experience that will benefit me in the future. I most definitely recommend this conference to anyone raising money and/or trying to accomplish big goals.”
Watkins-Conti Products, Inc. – Allison Conti
“Our first experience at NIBA’s 2016 conference in New York far exceeded our company’s expectations. The quality of attendees, coordination of the event, and explosion of interest in our company provided a great start to the process of developing strategic partnerships. Thank you NIBA and Jim Hock from Hanover International for all of the support and a pathway to our continued success! This is truly where “Value Relationships” are formed.”
EVAOS Inc. – Richard Simpkins, Co-Founder
“Attending NIBA was the perfect opportunity for our company to interact with the professional investment world. It was the perfect platform for companies to present their business plans and strategies to the investment community and have personal face to face meetings with a large variety of investment groups. We could not be any happier with our decision to join and participate in the NY NIBA Conference.”
Stewart’s All American Corp. – Jim LaGanke, President
“I wanted to take the time on behalf of myself and the entire HARD Beverages organization, to thank you for sponsoring us at the NIBA conference in New York. We had the opportunity to share the fantastic things with HARD, but equally important we had the chance to meet such a wide array of professionals from many different fields that complement our company’s long and short term goals. The staff was a pleasure to deal with and were so very helpful in a multitude of ways. I can only describe the entire experience in one word “Success”, and look forward to enjoying the fruit produced by the seeds planted during the conference. We sincerely thank you, and look forward to attending more in the future!”

Primary Capital & MicroCap Leadership Intensive – Scott Lopez
“NIBA is the perfect conference and networking experience for both companies that are in the capital raising phase of their business, as well as for investment bankers to hear what is coming to market and participate with these new companies on a one on one basis. As a former conference producer, I was proud to be a presenter with Mark Tenner from FANZ UNITED as well as be well attended to by Jim Hock and his team from Hanover International to insure we had as many one on one meetings as possible. Thank you to the Hanover team for representing our company in the best light to the right people.”
Fanz United, LLC – Lisa Tenner – Sr. VP. Marketing and Branding
“The NIBA October 2015 NYC conference in was really productive for ExeLED. As a result of our presentation on Tuesday, we were able to talk with a number of very interested investors and service providers in the one-on-one sessions on Wednesday. With our follow-up communications we now have five very solid investors which we hope will yield new funding soon. But we also know that this is the beginning of a very rigorous process of talking with many investment banking firms as we become more active in the stock market and NIBA provided the platform.”
Energie Holdings Inc. (d.b.a. ExeLED Holdings) – Hal Hansen – CEO
“We could not have been better served by the recent NIBA conference in New York. From our sponsor Jim Hock’s advice on revising and delivering our presentation, to the hands-on coordination provided by board members throughout the event, to the caliber of the attending firms, NIBA wrapped its arms around us and smoothed the way to the overwhelming response we received.”

Armour Midstream LP – Joshua Soloway – CEO & Co-Founder
Riafox: “We would like to thank NIBA for hosting a world-class conference at the Balboa Club in Newport Beach this past June. Presenting companies gave the investment community access to cutting edge products and services. We presented our services as a mobile tech firm participating in the explosive FinTech market with an app addressing compliance challenges for businesses and broker/dealers. The one-on-one meetings offered a relaxed atmosphere to address more intimate details from the presentations. Additionally, we were exposed to companies developing solutions for how business and consumers transact commerce in today’s economy and business opportunities therein. Will not miss the next event. Outstanding.”

Reddy Moola, Ph.D., Founder and President
International Bancard: “The NIBA conference was a great way for us to get exposure for our merchant processing referral program. We weren’t sure the audience would accept our offer to pay them for referrals when they are typically asked for money; but the response so far has been very encouraging and we even had members ask to sign up while at the conference. I expect this to be a long and productive relationship and it all started with the NIBA conference!”
