Pitch online to CVC’s/VC’s/angels +1 investor meet @ UCB

Above is a picture from the 4th Pitch Global CVC Leadership Summit. Note that SK Group is the largest investor in Lifesciences in Korea and our Sponsor, Niterra Venture Labs (rebranded from NGK CVC) is investing $ 1 billion in Startups, 50% of which is in Lifesciences/Health Tech. Many Tech CVC’s & investors in our eco system have started investing in Lifesciences/Health Tech in all stages.

As a long term affiliate of Funding & Mentoring Agencies of Cal Gov’s Office of Economic Dev like Norcal SBDC/TFG etc we at Pitch Global, have built the local CVC Network with their support ever since COVID started and we discovered the trend of CVC’s investing in early/all stages. The following funding success story on one of their Agency sites explains how we are connected to the State’s Funding & Mentoring agencies. www.norcalsbdc.org/client-stories/telemetrak. Please email us if you are based in Northern California and want to sign up for State funded assistance/grants Advisory. [email protected]
