About this Event
Join us online for one of our monthly events co-hosted by UC Berkeley Extension, now in the 6th year of this partnership. We usually have one keynote (for example, the legendary VC Ben Narasin former NEA Partner and Founder of Tenacity Ventures), up to 10 featured investors, and another 15-20 unfeatured ones from thousands of investors in our network. The picture above showcases senior investors from TDK Ventures, Stanford Angels, Harvard Angels, Keiretsu Forum, Caltech Angels, Samsung Catalyst Fund, Hypertherm Ventures, US angels, IPO Group, etc. and should give you an idea of the kind of investors you can meet at the Pitch Global-UC Berkeley Extension virtual investor event every month.
If you are a global entrepreneur and want to Pitch via Zoom to some of the most well-connected Investors in the Silicon Valley ecosystem, here is your chance.
*Since there is heavy demand from global entrepreneurs for this online Pitch event series, we reserve the right to move you to the next event in case this event fills up*
