New healthcare product/service pitch event on 10th November

Neil Foster, the Partner at Baker Botts who kindly supports us, has suggested we run a healthcare product/service pitch evening. He has kindly agreed to offer magnums of champagne for the best presentation and for the most fundable company.

He will also be inviting at least five potential funders to judge the fundability of the pitches, so there could well be a much bigger prize for one or more lucky winners. (Best presentation will be voted by the whole audience).

To get the most from the panel, we will also be encouraging them to give a few hints & tips at the end of the event, on how best to pitch to potential backers, so there should be something for everyone.

As usual we will start at 6.30 pm. The evening will comprise 10 four minute pitches with two minutes for questions, with pitchers being allowed a maximum of three slides, so fast-moving, before we avail ourselves of Baker Botts' generous hospitality.

The ten companies invited to pitch are:

1. BioSelf Technology - Stefan Chmelik

2. Club Soda - Laura Willoughby

3. Comuzi Software - Richard Fagbolagun

4. EnXray - Edward Cappabianca

5. Kemuri - Leonard Anderson

6. Probe Scientific - Neil Smith

7. Repositive Limited - Adrian Alexa

8. The Self-Care People - Hari Ponniah

9. VBond - Aravind Upadhyaya and Martin Worth

10. Yoti - Alexander Kent-Braham

We also have a reserve if for any reason any of these are unable to present.

Should be a great evening!
