F-Impact: Pitch & Put your idea under pressure before others do it!

>> WHAT'S F-IMPACT ALL ABOUT

The F-IMPACT meetup is brought to you by the Founder Institute and ThePlace and is a unique opportunity for young founders and aspiring entrepreneurs to step up and fight for their startup. You’ll be put in the spotlight in front of an audience and given 5 minutes to pitch (no slides, just you!) your company or your idea – but this isn’t a normal pitch.

You do not do it for investors, but in front of a crowd of people ready to reveal any cracks in the pitch, product and idea.

To make the most of it, we have a experienced entrepreneur to view your pitch and give dedicated feedback.

And you never know – maybe some good contacts will come out of it, as well. In the past events, people found their co-founders, startups did crucial but successful pivots after the feedback, and some founders qualified for a fellowship at the founder institute.

>> THE ASK

Come as a listener or prepare a 5 min pitch – it’s up to you. All are welcome. Many times in the past, we’ve had audience members come just to listen to other pitches, but after a few times finally gained the courage to come onstage and share their startup idea. And the best part is that no one has regretted it.

>> WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

This is a chance for you to get objective feedback and advice from people who know what they’re talking about, so you can pivot or drop your idea before putting in too much work. So many founders become too focused in their own idea world that they can’t see what’s wrong with what they’re doing or where they're headed – we're here to change that.
