Startup Pitches to Human and AI investors
What happens when therapeutics startups pitch not only to a real investor… but also to an AI-investor, live on stage?
Join us at Stevenage Bioscience Catalyst for an experimental afternoon where science, strategy, storytelling and AI collide.
Up to 10 therapeutics startups will each deliver a 5-minute pitch, followed by live feedback, commentary and discussion from:
a human investor
an AI-investor
Expect:
sharp questions
unexpected observations
investor-to-investor debate
moments of agreement… and disagreement
One investor may ask about your regulatory pathway.
The other may tell your the probability of survival before you finish slide 3.
In either case, we'll make sure the atmosphere will be founder-friendly, curious and interactive. The AI investor has also been instructed not to replace anyone’s job during the event. At least not before coffee.
Whether you're a founder, investor, scientist or biotech operator, this session is designed to spark conversations around:
the future of pitching
AI in decision-making
storytelling in biotech
and how startups stand out in an increasingly noisy market
