Open Demo Day
Pivot Wrapped Its 1st Open Demo Day with 6 startups competing for a $100K reward pool and $1.5M in investor confidence.
The energy was unreal. Applications crossed triple digits, the top teams battled it out on a global virtual stage, and founders walked away with new connections, sharper narratives, and real investor conversations. Our judges loved the pace, the clarity, and the quality of products showcased across Web3 and AI.
Now it is time for Open Demo Day – Edition 2!
Where we are raising the bar even more HIGHER!
Whether you have a working product or early traction, this is your chance to build in public and pitch in front of a room filled with founders, VCs, angels, and ecosystem partners.
Total Reward Pool: $100,000
