Demo Day
Come and listen to startups pitch their ideas to seasoned investors. Cheer on the people trying to make an impact and learn from the investors in how they probe a business. There isn't any funding attached to the event itself, but you can catch all these startups on their booth and the goal of this event is networking.
Demo Day
Too often ideas get lost in the shuffle of startup uncertainty. Innovations get left on the side-lines or are overlooked in favor of more connected or better leveraged companies. Get your chance to present your pitch to investors and successful entrepreneurs and get valuable feedback. If you are interested in presenting please: https://forms.gle/Q1ZsGBQbgvVRonbf9
