VNC's Capps joining FT's mergermarket

On April 7th I'm joining the crew at The Financial Times Group's mergermarket newsletter, in the role of Nashville-based regional reporter, focusing on healthcare, life sciences, mergers and acquisitions and other assignments. I'll say more, soon, but I wanted to let Venture Nashville's readers, sources and other friends know, now. VentureNashville.com will soon go into hiatus. As word has gotten 'round, some folks have expressd interest in exploring keeping VNC going. I'd sure love that. It's been a labor of love. If there turn out to be serious prospects for that, you'll be among the first to know. Meanwhile, stick with us. Cheers, Milt Capps [milt@venturenashville.com]

  5. Milt,

    I've been a regular reader for what seems like forever now and I hate to read this! You always provided the best information and links. Dangit. I'd come here about once a month and 'catch' up... well, now I suppose I'm all caught up ... only, I never found my investor :-)

    Wish you the best and wish someone with time would pick up where you've left off and continue the great Venture Nashville reporting.
