Checkwriters Lunch
A curated pitch lunch bringing together 10-12 NYC based VCs with decision-making authority to hear from early-stage founders actively raising capital.
This is a focused, in-person session designed to facilitate direct conversations between founders and investors who are actively deploying capital.
We will select 8 companies to pitch live in front of participating investors.
Each founder will present their company and take questions directly from VCs in the room, followed by discussion and feedback.
Who should apply:
Open to pre-seed or seed-stage companies that meet the following criteria:
At least one participating investor (VC, angel, or family office) already involved
Actively raising or preparing to close a round
Clear articulation of product, traction, and market opportunity
