Dan is a founding partner of the Biriş Goran law firm, and heads the firm's Corporate / M&A practice group and is currently the president of the VentureConnect Foundation.  Although a lawyer by training and profession, Dan has been doing his best to bring out the entrepreneur in him. Instead of choosing a safe path of a law firm partnership in sunny and peaceful Florida, Dan decided to return to his country of birth and take on an active role in Romania’s still ongoing transition to a fully functional market economy.  Therefore, Dan’s involvement with VentureConnect, one of the most important entrepreneurial initiatives in Romania today, was an ideal project. Dan is firmly convinced that VentureConnect will launch a few millionaires, in fact billionaires, in the next following years.
