David Freschman, the “Voice of Emerging Business,” Joins Té Revesz on her Show, Global Reach


David J. Freschman, one of America’s most highly regarded and influential venture capitalists and early-stage business experts, will appear on Global Reach on the VoiceAmerica Radio Network. He’ll talk with host, Té Revesz about what attracts a venture capitalist or angel investor, and why they prize an entrepreneur who can solve a problem that no one else can see.
 David J. Freschman, one of America’s most influential venture capitalists and early-stage business experts will join Té Revesz, host of Global Reach on the VoiceAmerica Radio Network’s Business Channel ( www.voiceamerica.com/show/1984/global-reach) on Thursday, June 7 at 11 AM Pacific Time.

Every aspiring entrepreneur dreams of attracting a venture capitalist or angel investor like David Freschman, who has guided 30+ portfolio firms to investment funding, financial stability, growth and exit opportunities.

About Global Currency Watch:
We are in the midst of a world-wide sovereign debt crisis, which will most likely result in the removal of the US Dollar as the World’s Reserve Currency by 2017. This possibility represents the single largest risk to the global economy and will open up the door for a new Global Currency to be established in its wake. If this does, in fact occur, the level of extreme volatility and uncertainty in our markets and across the global society will be unprecedented, but it won’t be all gloom and doom. The key to successfully navigating this environment will be to monitor the situation as it develops and to be able to understand the ramifications of the news in real time and that is precisely what this show is dedicated to!  We may not be able to avoid this event, but we can certainly prepare for it!

About Gerald Celente:

Founder of The Trends Research Institute in 1980, Gerald Celente is a pioneer trend strategist. He is author of the national bestseller Trends 2000 and Trend Tracking (Warner Books) – "Far better than Megatrends," along with being the editor and publisher of the internationally circulated Trends Journal newsletter.  He predicted the stock market crash in 1987, the break-up of the Soviet Union, the top of the dotcom bubble and crash, the real estate bubble and crash and the Iraq war.  And what is Mr. Celente forecasting right now?  An economy that is worse than the Great Depression.
