On stage with him: SC Moatti (Mighty Capital), Chris McCann (Race Capital) and Imad Ansari (Edgewood | Redwood Collective | Aureum Leaders Circle). At Synexis, we don't drive volumes; we drive value. Most founder-investor mixers run on volume. You buy a ticket, walk into a hall of hundreds, and work the room blind. Most conversations feel promising. You leave with a stack of contacts, and most threads quietly die in your inbox – and you never find out that half the "investors" in the room were not investing at all.As an investor, how many useless conversations do you have visiting events? Startups that are not there yet... We built this evening the other way around. Before the doors open, both sides are reviewed. Founders are screened. No non-startups, no idea-stage companies that are years away from a raise. Everyone in the room is building something real and either raising now or preparing to. Investors are verified. We check that the people listed as investors are actually deploying capital – VCs, family offices, angels, corporate and strategic investors. That is the whole point. Not the size of the room – who is in it. We don't sell access. We assemble the room. 🚀 What you get as a founder ⏰ Limited number of tickets; prices are growing from $149 to $349. Every tier is limited; don't be late to get yours! A screened room. Your time goes to real investors, not to people collecting business cards. Seven kinds of capital in one evening. Most founders only ever talk to VCs. You will hear directly from venture funds, angel groups, family offices, corporate CVCs, individual angels, and investment banks – on stage, they will talk about how each decides, what check they write, and how to approach them, and you will talk to 75 of them in the room. The investor lineup, published in advance. You know who is in the room before you buy a ticket. Real conversations, not pitch slots. No pitching from the stage. Time to actually talk. 🏆 A concierge table option. Take a startup table and we select the investors most relevant to what you are building and route them to your table through the evening. 🔥 Investor lists will be published in the next 2 weeks.We assembled 150 GPs, FOs and LPs at our event in Las Vegas this year (more about us below). 💼 What you get as an investor (complimentary, by approval) Free entry. Verified investors attend at no cost. Screened founders. Reviewed for stage, sector, and whether they are genuinely raising. No tourists, no idea-stage noise. No one pitching at you from a stage. This is a conversation format by design. Co-investors in the room. VCs, family offices, angels, CVCs and LPs. 🏆 A concierge table option. Take a table, and we select the companies that fit your thesis and route them to you throughout the evening, so you don't have to work the room yourself.
