Please join the IIT-Knapp Entrepreneurship Center on Wednesday, December 17th as we honor Bob Geras for his service to our community. In addition to serving on our Board, Bob is our "Angel-in-Residence" and has also agreed to organize and head up our new Angel Network. Known as the "Godfather" of Chicago area technology investors, Bob Geras has founded, operated, mentored or funded hundreds of successful companies during his distinguished career. In 2002, Bob was given the "City Lights Angel of the Year" award by the Chicago Software Association in recognition of "many years of exceptional service in fostering and encouraging entrepreneurship in Chicago's technology community." In 2004, the Illinois Venture Capital Association presented Bob the Fellows Award for "extraordinary leadership in early stage venture funding." In addition, on March 1, 2006 Bob was inducted into the Chicago Area Entrepreneurship Hall of Fame.
