About us

In-Person event, location Galvanize, Boulder

PitchBoulder is a pitch mentoring platform offering local entrepreneurs an opportunity to present their startups to a diverse audience of mentors, advisors, investors and peers. Presenters deliver a 6-8 minute pitch deck presentation designed for investors, channel partners, co-founders, employees, etc. They then engage in 40 minutes of constructive feedback and questioning that we call crowd mentoring followed by 30 minutes of networking.

Entrepreneurs gain insight into possible ways they can improve their businesses and connect with a peer community that cares about their progress. Participants walk away having advanced their business and the audience walks away with the satisfaction of providing expert crowd-vetted coaching.

Whether presenter, mentor or passive audience member, there is much to learn every week from this dynamic and diverse community. PitchBoulder takes place at 9:00 am every Wednesday.

  • Presenting: Momease Solutions – A Better Way to Support Breastfeeding

    Presenting: Momease Solutions – A Better Way to Support Breastfeeding

    Galvanize Boulder, 1023 Walnut St., Boulder, CO, US

    Momease Solutions (http://www.momeasesolutions.com) — Co-Founder Jennie Lynch presenting — is a maternal health company improving the breastfeeding experience through more effective and biologically aligned solutions.

    Millions of mothers struggle with breast pumps every year, leading to early discontinuation of breastfeeding—only 1 in 4 infants meet AAP and WHO feeding goals. Current pumps rely only on suction, which is often uncomfortable and does not reflect how the body naturally produces milk. Research shows that adding warmth and pressure can significantly improve milk expression, yet no scalable products exist that apply these methods.

    Momease Solutions is building products that translate these proven techniques into practical, easy-to-use solutions for mothers. The goal is to improve comfort, efficiency, and overall breastfeeding outcomes.

    Our target market is new and expecting mothers in the U.S. who need more effective and comfortable breastfeeding solutions and are willing to pay for improved outcomes, convenience, and a better overall experience.

    Our competition is traditional breast pump manufacturers, manual accessories, and DIY solutions. Our competitive advantage is integrating clinically supported techniques like warmth and pressure into scalable, user-friendly products designed specifically for modern mothers.

    The total market size in 2024 is the global breast pump and maternal care market, and the total market revenue in 2024 is $3B+.

    Top 3 challenges:

    1. Optimizing marketing channels to effectively reach target audiences for initial product launch
    2. Connecting with the right investors during pre-launch and early-stage growth
    3. Maintaining momentum and execution speed with a small team

    Our PitchBoulder ask: We’re looking for introductions to investors focused on health, wellness, maternal health, and female-led companies, as well as guidance on connecting with B2B buyers like hospital systems. We’d also love feedback on how to continue building strong resonance with our direct-to-consumer audience as we launch.

  • Presenting: NoLimitRobotics – Automating Aircraft Baggage Handling

    Presenting: NoLimitRobotics – Automating Aircraft Baggage Handling

    Galvanize Boulder, 1023 Walnut St., Boulder, CO, US

    NoLimitRobotics (https://nolimitrobotics.com) — Co-Founder Niv Schwartz presenting — is an aviation robotics company bringing automation inside aircraft cargo holds.

    Airlines operate on thin margins where every minute on the ground matters, yet baggage handling in narrow-body aircraft is still manual, slow, and physically demanding. This creates delays, injuries, and high operational costs.

    NoLimitRobotics introduces the first aircraft-level automation system for baggage handling, eliminating the need for crews to work inside tight cargo spaces. Their modular, AI-driven system integrates with existing operations without requiring aircraft modifications. By combining smart hardware and robotics, the platform speeds up turnaround times, improves safety, and reduces costs for airlines.

    Our target market is airlines and ground handling operators in the U.S. and globally who need faster, safer, and more efficient baggage operations and are willing to pay for reduced delays, lower labor costs, and improved safety.

    Our competition is manual labor processes, ground-based automation systems, and partial baggage handling solutions. Our competitive advantage is full in-aircraft automation, modular deployment, zero aircraft modifications, and an Automation-as-a-Service model with fast ROI.

    The total market size in 2024 is the global airport ground handling and automation market, and the total market revenue in 2024 is $30B+.

    Top 3 challenges:

    1. Navigating a conservative and highly regulated aviation industry
    2. Gaining access to strategic partners and pilot customers
    3. Building a strong local ecosystem of advisors, partners, and supporters

    Our PitchBoulder ask: We’re looking to expand our local network and connect with mentors, operators, and investors experienced in hardware and/or aviation. We also welcome introductions to strategic partners within airlines or ground operations.

  • Presenting: DoorBotics – Making Doors Accessible for Everyone

    Presenting: DoorBotics – Making Doors Accessible for Everyone

    Galvanize Boulder, 1023 Walnut St., Boulder, CO, US

    DoorBotics (https://doorbotics.com) — Co-Founder Sevy Swift presenting — is building affordable, easy-to-install solutions that make doors accessible for people with mobility challenges.

    Doors are a daily barrier for over 15 million Americans who use a wheelchair, scooter, walker, or cane. Existing automatic door openers are expensive ($3K–$5K), require professional installation, and often involve permanent modifications to the door frame.

    DoorBotics is developing a simpler, more affordable solution that removes these barriers while making installation faster and more accessible. The goal is to dramatically expand access to automatic doors without the cost and complexity of current systems. This unlocks independence and improves quality of life for millions of people.

    Our target market is individuals with mobility challenges, caregivers, and accessibility-focused organizations in the U.S. who need affordable, easy-to-install door automation solutions and are willing to pay for independence, safety, and convenience.

    Our competition is traditional automatic door openers, manual accessibility aids, and custom-installed systems. Our competitive advantage is lower cost, simplified installation, and reduced need for permanent structural modifications.

    The total market size in 2024 is the U.S. accessibility and home modification market, and the total market revenue in 2024 is $10B+.

    Top 3 challenges:

    1. Navigating hardware certification and compliance requirements
    2. Understanding Medicare and private insurance reimbursement pathways
    3. Scaling B2B distribution and securing installer partnerships

    Our PitchBoulder ask: We’re looking for feedback on our go-to-market strategy, especially how to transition from early adopters to B2B distribution. We’d also value input on our financial projections and milestones toward a $2M revenue run rate, as well as candid feedback on the clarity and strength of our overall pitch.
