Under the Radar began as an evening networking event in April 2003. After months of sold-out events, we were urged by our network of executives and VCs to create a full-day event: effectively a one-stop shop to evaluate and explore new business opportunities, partnerships, potential investments, and trends in several technology sectors. In 2007, IBDNetwork became Dealmaker Media, and Under the Radar continues to be one of the most respected and attended technology conferences in Silicon Valley.
