MyLifeBrand (www.mylifebrand.com), the new social Web platform which lets users browse, manage, connect and syndicate their favorite social networks, communities, services and friends all from one site, announced today, a community on MyLifeBrand that will incorporate the most popular elements of today’s social networking and Web 2.0 destinations to enable its members to more freely and easily network online. This will be the first professional social network built exclusively for the venture capital community. The online community, which can be accessed at www.VentureNetwork.VC, will be available to venture capitalists, private equity firms, and limited partners.
Beyond the ability for New England Venture Network (NEVN) members to access their other professional social networks and colleagues on other social networks like LinkedIn from within the NEVN community, the community will include numerous new components designed to not only facilitate greater exchange of information and ideas but also create a forum where members can continuously interact outside planned networking events coordinated by NEVN each year.
Each member will have their own profile page which can be populated with detail about their firm, investment focus, personal background and experience. Not unlike some of the most popular business and mainstream social networking sites in use today members will establish their own sub-networks and internal communities.
“We are very pleased to have been selected by the New England Venture Network to enable their online community and website”, said Jeff Jani, CEO of MyLifeBrand, “as we consider them among the most sophisticated networkers around.”
In terms of general features, the new site will enable members to post and discuss information about deals, job openings and upcoming industry and live networking events. Also offered will be in-depth industry research collected from the area’s most knowledgeable analyst firms to help members with due diligence and strategic investment decisions. Finally, the site will feature regular Q&A sessions with experts in various fields tangential but pertinent to the venture capital world, including the fields of law, accounting and marketing.
Over the long term, NEVN will partner with other venture capital associations to bring VentureNetwork.VC to the entire venture capital community. While any eligible industry member can join today, the flexibility of the MyLifeBrand platform will allow peer associations to customize scheduling and communications within their unique memberships while facilitating the collaboration of all members across the broader network.
MyLifeBrand aims to be a single-stop social web platform for enabling users to browse, manage, connect and syndicate their online networks, communities and services across the Web.
MyLifeBrand…your life…online.
