Silicon Oasis Pitch Night w/ PHX FWD & PHX Angels
Silicon Oasis Pitch Night returns on August 6, in partnership with PHX FWD, bringing together Arizona’s founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders for an evening of curated startup pitches and real conversation.
The event runs from 6:00–8:30 PM, with networking and arrival beginning at 6:00. Pitching kicks off at 6:30 PM and features 3–5 selected startups taking the stage.
Each founder will deliver a 5–7 minute pitch, followed by live Q&A from expert panelists and a few questions from the audience, creating an interactive, founder-first experience that blends insight, feedback, and community engagement.
This is not a large-scale demo day — it’s an intentional, high-signal gathering designed to spark relationships, surface early-stage opportunities, and strengthen Arizona’s startup ecosystem.
Applications to pitch close on July 31, after which the Silicon Oasis team will review all submissions. Companies will be selected based on the strength of their business, stage of traction, quality of the pitch, and overall fit for the audience. Selected founders will be notified shortly after the review process concludes.
