Details

Co-hosted by UC Berkeley Extension, Pitch Global invites startups in the Lifesciences field to pitch to respected Silicon Valley CVCs, VCs, and Angel investors. Using our vast network of thousands of investors, our pitch events often feature investors such as the legendary VC Ben Narasin (former NEA Partner and Founder of Tenacity Ventures).
Our events usually have one investor as a keynote speaker, and we feature up to 10 investors from funds such as TDK Ventures, Stanford Angels, Harvard Angels, Keiretsu Forum, Caltech Angels, Samsung Catalyst Fund, Hypertherm Ventures, US Angels, IPO group, etc (image above shows some of these investors). We also usually have as attendees about 15-20 unfeatured investors.
We attribute the success of our events to our organizers Kaustav Chaudhuri (KC) and Axel Tillmann from Pitch Global, and our hosts, UC Berkeley Extension’s team. We’re also extremely grateful to our investors who share their invaluable time and perform the roles of judges and mentors by sharing their feedback, perspectives, and insight with the startups participating in our events.
