The Elevator Pitch Roundtable
September 2, 2009 | 6:00-8:30 PM | 2475 Hanover Street | Palo Alto, CA
Event Sponsor: Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman
The VC Taskforce Elevator Pitch Roundtable is a great opportunity for entrepreneurs to network with investors and other CXOs, present their company and idea, and hear first-hand what it takes to raise early-stage capital in 2009. Each of our events has consistently drawn an excellent entrepreneur-to-investor ratio.
If you are an entrepreneur in a startup that is currently seeking capital, and would like to present your best 90-second elevator pitch to a panel of VCs, you must register in advance and have confirmation from the program manager that you are on the list of presenters. The maximum number of presenters is limited to ten.
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 contact us if you would like to participate on one of our Elevator Pitch Roundtable or Workshop panels.
During the evening, entrepreneurs on the list will present their pitches to the entire room. Our distinguished panel of early stage investors will ask questions and provide brief feedback. Please note that pitching time limits will be strictly enforced! After the 90 second pitch there will be five minutes of Q&A by the panel followed by two minutes of critique.
Our lively panel discussion and Q&A will also provide critical insight into what it takes to raise capital today.
Moderator: Ash Dhar, Horizon Ventures
Panelists:
Lior Nuchi, Pillsbury
Dan Rubin, Alloy Ventures
Greg Robinson, Peninsula Ventures
John Steuart, Claremont Creek Ventures
