AI Cybersecurity Buyer Pitch Competition: CISOs
Apply to Pitch CISOs OR Just Attend & 👀 Watch.
The Panel Will Also Be Sharing Their Top Challenges
WHEN WILL I KNOW IF I'M PITCHING?
5 startups are picked ahead of the event by pre-vote judges (cybersecurity executives), and 5 will be chosen live by the panel for a total of 10. This is a low-stakes, fun environment, and it's not recorded :)
AGENDA
5-min --> buyers share top 3 priorities they're solving
35-min --> buyers review selected startup pitches live
1-min --> buyers select the most likely tool they'd consider buying (aka the winner 🏆)
10-min --> Q&A - a chance for those not selected to ask/pitch/discuss relevant questions to the panel
