WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND!
Direct access to top Corporate VCs and leading AI VCs
High-signal fundraising knowledge panels
Best-in-class startup pitches in a highly selective format
We will showcase the AI investing ecosystems of the United States, Israel, Singapore, India, and other critical markets — alongside the most relevant solutions for companies seeking capital, strategic partnerships, and customers at the frontier of artificial intelligence.
Our outreach reaches 100+ active AI investors, including the CVC and VC powerhouses featured above. We expect 20–30 investors in the room and will admit only 10–15 entrepreneurs to pitch and engage. The goal is simple and deliberate: put the right people in the same room and extend Pitch Global’s established reputation into the AI market with the same rigor and selectivity we apply in our other verticals. This focus is personal for our leadership.
Our Group CEO previously built and scaled technology startups at the intersection of compute and systems design. What is today hailed as AI was then called predictive maintenance, natural language processing, and expert systems technology.
Deborah Magid (Investor in Residence) spent her career at IBM during the formative years of enterprise AI and cognitive systems. Rachna Dayal began in semiconductors before moving into healthcare and AI-driven investing; her next fund will cover both verticals, and her husband is a long-time TSMC executive with more than 100 patents central to the advanced packaging that powers today’s AI accelerators.
Sharon Sim, CEO and Chairwoman of SV Access, works at cabinet level with the Taiwanese and Singaporean governments — two of the most important nodes in the global AI hardware and talent supply chain. The result is not another broad pitch event. It is a curated, high-trust environment built by people who have lived inside the AI value chain — and who know how capital, talent, compute, and Asia–U.S. connectivity actually move.
Why Silicon Valley Access?
Powered by more than 10 years of Pitch Global experience. Alumni of our programs have collectively raised more than $1 billion. That is measurable success — not marketing language. Our long-standing affiliation with NorCal SBDC has independently documented many of these outcomes.
Most events charge anywhere from $99 to $5,000 (and higher). We regularly hear from participants and alumni — sometimes the same day they attend another program — that they wish they had not spent the money. “You gave us more than any of the mega-events” is a comment we receive often enough that it has become a pattern.
We work with both first-time founders and seasoned operators. Since inception we have engaged with more than 4,000 companies; many stayed with us through multiple stages of their journey. Our ecosystem rarely jumps into a deal on day one. Like any serious relationship, the parties need time to evaluate one another. Investors in our network pay close attention to how founders respond to mentorship and how quickly they absorb feedback — it is one of the clearer signals they use when deciding where to allocate capital and attention.
Don’t take our word for it. Hear it directly from the entrepreneurs who have been through the process.
