Batter Up San Francisco!

All this can leave an entrepreneur feeling frustrated, dejected, and unsure of what can be done to improve in the future. ​​We think this stinks. That's why, on December 2, we're hosting a live pitch event for founders. And it's FREE to attend. Here's how it'll work: RSVP to the event and submit your pitch deck. Up to 6 founders will be picked and have 2.5 minutes to pitch a panel of investors from Hustle Fund's Angel Squad. The investors will ask follow-up questions and offer feedback to the founders.... just like in a real VC meeting! By the end of this event, you'll have a deeper understanding of why investors decide to invest in a company (or not). And the winner takes home a prize We'll leave some time at the end of the event for your questions... so come curious! Who should come? We designed this event for founders and investors. If you're a founder looking to get feedback on your pitch, you'll love this. If you're a founder just looking to learn from other founders, we invite you to register without submitting your deck, and come enjoy the show! We promise you'll get some big takeaways. If you're an investor looking to meet more founders, or just hoping to learn more about how to evaluate companies, you'll also get a lot out of Batter Up! 🚨Take Note This is an in-person event. There is no virtual option. You must be present, in-person, to be eligible to pitch. Applications to pitch will close a few weeks before the event. If you have not submitted your deck by then, you will not be able to pitch. Please be ready with your pitch in case you are selected. ​The Schedule 6pm: Get here, eat pizza, make friends 6:30-8pm: Batter Up! – Pitches from a few founders and investor panel feedback 8-9pm: Finish the pizza, make more friends 9pm: Say goodbye Who's behind this?
