If you are an entrepreneur in a Bay Area startup and currently seeking capital, come prepared with your best 30-second elevator pitch and a minimum of six copies of your Executive Summary.

If you are an investor come and listen to entrepreneurs’ pitches. You never know where you’ll find your next deal. Find out how our panel of investors rate the entrepreneurs’ pitches; which VCs pass and for what reasons; and, which entrepreneurs other VCs want to talk to ASAP. Please let us know if you would like to participate on one of our panels.

During the evening, a select number of entrepreneurs will present their pitch to the entire room.  Our distinguished panel of 4-6 early stage investors will ask questions and provide brief feedback. Previous panelists have included investors from Vantage Point, Hummer Winblad, Cardinal Venture, Bay Partners, Interwest, LeapFrog, Intel Capital, BlueRun, Apax Partners, Levensohn, Keiretsu Forum, Sand Hill Angels, Gabriel Venture Partners, Walden VC  and many others. Please note that pitching time limits will be strictly enforced!
 
Our lively panel discussion and Q&A will also provide critical insight into what it takes to raise capital today.
