Daos Founders Connect: Reverse VC Pitch Night
Watch top regional VCs pitch their funds to a room of founders. Vote on the best fund thesis and win 1-on-1 VC office hours on stage!
About This Event: Founders pitch VCs all year long. On September 16th, we’re flipping the dynamic.
Join us at Daos Hub for Reverse VC Pitch Night, where active regional Venture Capitalists take the stage to pitch their funds, investment thesis, ticket sizes, and real value-add to a room of Web3, AI, and emerging tech founders.
Instead of passive listening, you hold the floor: evaluate investor value propositions, vote on the top fund, and challenge VCs on their actual check-writing timelines.
What to Expect:
Reverse VC Pitches: 5-minute pitches from active VCs detailing what they look for, check sizes, and post-investment support.
Founders' Choice Voting: Live interactive polling where attendees vote for the VC with the clearest thesis and most founder-friendly platform.
The Crowd Interrogation (Q&A): Direct, unfiltered audience Q&A to ask VCs hard questions about deal flow, timelines, and terms.
Lightning 1-on-1 Office Hours: Drop your deck or business card at check-in for a chance to win a live 5-minute speed session with the VC of your choice right on stage.
