London Tech Startup Founders Pitch Competition with Angel & VC Investors

Entrepreneurs Collective (EC) connects ambitious founders with angels, family offices and VCs through curated events in London. Our pitch nights at Home House Studio are built to be focused and practical - clear pitches, direct feedback, and relaxed conversation with investors who are actively deploying capital.

Past pitchers have gone on to feature on Dragons' Den, scale globally, and define entire categories (see below).

The evening

• Arrivals and welcome drinks
• Live founder pitches to a curated investor panel
• Investor Q&A and real-time feedback
• Extended networking - warm introductions, not name badges

Your host Matthew Milner - angel investor, multi-VC scout, startup adviser and pitch coach. He's seen thousands of decks; his feedback alone is worth the ticket.

Alumni founders

• Gener8 — Sam Jones, featured on Dragons' Den
• Perkbox — Chieu Cao, scaled globally
• Oddbox — Emilie Vanpoperinghe, category-defining sustainable food brand

Founders: want to pitch? You're eligible if you're pre-seed, post-MVP and generating first revenues. SEIS-eligible startups are prioritised - the tax relief makes them especially attractive to the angels and family offices in the room, which means more meaningful conversations on the night. Slots are limited and selection is competitive - apply via the form here.

Investors: come and meet the next cohort. If you're actively writing cheques at pre-seed or seed, you'll leave with a shortlist worth a follow-up.

Venue Home House Studio, London — a private members' club designed for focused conversations, not small talk.

House rules This is a vetted, invitation-quality event. A few standards to keep the room right:

• Founders and investors only. Service providers will have tickets cancelled and refunded, and entry refused on the door.
• Please use your work email when booking. If we can't verify who you represent, we'll cancel the ticket and issue a full refund.
• Arrive on time for drinks. Late entry may be restricted once the pitches begin.
