MORAGA, Calif. - March 3, 2005 - Dynasty has announced that its Founder, Randolph L. Tom, has been invited to speak at the Annual San Francisco-Silicon Valley Global Entrepreneurship Research Conference on March 9th at the Mark Hopkins Hotel. He will be joined on the panel by R. Sean Randolph, the President of the Bay Area Economic Forum, Ian Patrick Sobieski, Managing Director of the Band of Angels and Jonathan S. Storper, a partner at Hanson Bridgett, LLP. Mr. Tom will commence the first day of USF’s 2005 International Business Plan Competition.

Mr. Tom commented, “It is a great privilege to participate at such an illustrious event. The conference is an excellent opportunity to exchange views with other professionals involved in venture capital in support of entrepreneurship. Our affiliate, Fortify Systems, Inc., was honored at the Harvard Business School at that school’s competition last year. The USF Competition is one of the most prestigious of its kind in the nation, drawing a substantial number of participants and entrants each year. With my fellow investors and judges of the Competition, I look forward to meeting our audience of young entrepreneurs, distinguished members of the faculty and experienced business managers.”

Professor Mark Cannice, Associate Professor of Entrepreneurship and Director of the USF Entrepreneurship Program, quotes, “It is with great pleasure that we have Randolph join us at this event which brings together professors and graduate students from around the world, from the Ivy League to China schools. His experience and insight will once again be invaluable advice for those seeking to launch their ventures, particularly those with an Asian focus.”

Professor Roger Chen, an Associate Professor of Management and Co-director of the Entrepreneurship Program Research Initiative at the University of San Francisco, noted that, “Mr. Tom’s willingness to share his years of experience and success with our plan participants is evidence of his dedication to educate the next generation of entrepreneurs here and internationally.”

Mr. Tom founded Dynasty in 1988 and has been instrumental in establishing Dynasty as one of the foremost advisors to entrepreneurs and Asian investors.
