Welcome to Startup Pitch Night, our quarterly startup series! Each session, a handpicked group of tech startups—each representing a specific technology vertical—are invited to pitch to an audience and panel of expert judges. Startup Pitch Night is a great opportunity to showcase your startup and connect with the Silicon Valley’s entrepreneurial community, including investors and business leaders. This month, we’ll be featuring a group of amazing female-founded technology startups – scroll down to meet them!
Applications are now closed.
How it works:
– Each company will have the opportunity for a 4-minute pitch to the panel
– Each company will receive 5 minutes of Q&A, then 4 minutes of non-rebuttal feedback
– One overall winner selected from the judges’ scores, plus an audience favorite via online voting
