There are a lot of episodes scheduled for April. The speakers come from a variety of disciplines. The investor who funded the company is featured in each episode. We want to know how the founder hooked the VC, what makes their partnership work, and how other founders can improve their pitches.
Entrepreneurs can learn how to build better venture-backed businesses. We bring together the startup founders and the investors who back them to talk about what helped close the deal. The investors are looking at metrics. What questions did the founders ask that made them want to learn more? What was the step-by-step plan to get to the grand vision of the founders?
The founders in the audience can get on our virtual stage to pitch their startup to our esteemed guests and get their live feedback.
Networking is a feature of this weekly series.
The event is free to attend and takes place every Wednesday. The live pitch feedback session starts at 12:30 pm, followed by the interview at 12 pm and the pitch-off submissions at 11:30 am. The complete library of on-demand content is only available to members of TechCrunch+.
Here is a look at the outstanding guests that will be joining us on the show in April.
