A panel of investors will discuss the latest trends in startup funding and outline what they invest in and what they are looking for in a startup.
Pre-selected entrepreneurs will then pitch to the panel, followed by questions and feedback from the panel.
The pitch format is:
Two minutes, no slides, followed by four minutes of Q & A / feedback from the panel.
Audience members (even those who are not pitching) will benefit from the insights offered by the investor panelists and will learn more about the Silicon Valley startup investment ecosystem. All attendees will have an opportunity to interact with investor panelists during the networking portions of the event before and after the program.
There will also be a lightning round consisting of one minute elevator pitches.
