<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;"><SPAN STYLE="color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><STRONG>About Brian</STRONG>: Brian Laung Aoaeh is a partner at KEC Ventures, a venture fund that invests mainly in early stage technology startups capable of transforming the markets in which they operate. It partners with talented entrepreneurs and works with them, offering strategic advice and support, as they build their startups. He blogs at<A STYLE="color: #1155cc;" HREF="http://www.innovationfootprints.com/" TARGET="_blank" REL="nofollow">www.innovationfootprints.com</A>, and spends the majority of his time seeking founders who have not yet been discovered by other investors and the press, and who are building technology startups in which KEC Ventures should consider investing.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8000001907349px;"><SPAN STYLE="color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><STRONG>About KEC Ventures Office Hours</STRONG>: The idea is for Brian to get to know founders and hear about the problems they are solving well in advance of a potential funding round in which KEC Ventures might invest. KEC Ventures invests in seed and series A startups, and makes follow-on investments in the startups in its portfolio. Office hours topics of discussion can cover any subject founders want to discuss, and to which they feel Brian can make a meaningful contribution. Unless a startup is fundraising, office hours conversations do not usually count as a pitch - but they can serve as a prelude to a formal pitch. The time spent during office hours also gives founders an opportunity to turn the tables and interview Brian to determine if KEC Ventures would be a good fit as an investor.</SPAN></DIV>
