ABOUT THE STARTUP EVENT
Pitch to investors from CVC's/VC's/Angels UCB Online
Pitch Global has an Alliance with UC Berkeley, now in its 7th year. At 12 events a year, we have jointly produced over 75 events so far. Prior to 2019, all events were in person and great companies benefited from these events, such as CargoChief, Telematrak, and so many more.
From 2020 to 2023 all events went to Online, and now we are working with 50% of the events being Hybrid events (Online and In Person) with an average of 20 investors from the groups of CVCs, VCs, Family Offices, and Angels in the room.
After the regular pitch event, we are offering impromptu feedback by the attending investors.
Typically attending representatives from Angels, VCs, and CVCs
