Inside the Mind of an Early-Stage VC: AI, Markets & What Gets Funded Now

​What are today’s early stage VCs actually looking for – and how do they spot it? In a market where AI is reshaping everything, from diligence to distribution, this event brings together investors active across Seed and Series A to dig into what’s changed, what hasn’t, and what founders need to know to raise successfully in 2025.

​Join early-stage venture firms Hyde Park Venture Partners, M25, Matchstick Ventures, and Bread & Butter Ventures for an afternoon of insights, connection, and conversation at WeWork North Loop during Twin Cities Startup Week.
