What happens
Proceedings begin at 18:00, leading into a pitch session from 7:20 PM to 8:30 PM where three to five pre-screened companies present for eight minutes each, followed by investor questions. From 8:30 PM to 9:00 PM, direct follow-up discussions let participants evaluate next steps.
Who's in the room
Attendees comprise check-writing angels, venture capital partners, associates, and analysts sourcing deals alongside founders. Participants tend to be focused operators looking to evaluate concrete investment signals, discuss risk, and pursue pipeline opportunities rather than casual networking.
How to prepare
Refine an eight-minute presentation zeroing in on your core traction, team background, and specific financing ask.
