About Event

​Most students only ever see venture capital from the founder's side of the table. This night flips it.

​Four VC firms will take the stage and pitch you on why you should choose them. Each gets five minutes to make their case. Then they sit down together for a panel on what investors actually look for right now and how to approach them without getting ignored.

​Whether you're getting ready to raise, trying to work out how the ecosystem fits together or just curious about the people who back founders for a living, you'll leave with a clearer picture and a few good conversations under your belt.

​Lineup to be annouced soon!

​How it runs
6:00pm Doors open. Pizza will be provided along with soft drinks and water so come say hi to someone new.
6:15pm Welcome and the VC reverse pitches
6:45pm Panel on how VC works and what each firm is chasing
7:10pm Audience Q&A. You can send questions in through the QR code during the night or ask from the floor.
7:30pm Networking until 8pm

​Worth knowing
Please arrive before 6:15pm. The roller doors close then and we'd hate for you to miss the start.

​Pizza soft drinks and water are provided. The venue is alcohol free. Please fill out the form if you have any dietary requirements.

​The firms will be around afterwards, so bring your questions and your elevator pitch.
