Join us for an evening of live pitches and demos from hard tech founders and feedback from investors who actually fund hardware startups - and an onsite prototype from Haven Sauna!
This is the year that hardware eats the world, so we are putting top founders in the room with VCs deploying capital in hardware.
We'll be showcasing 6 breakthrough hard tech startups pitching to a live panel of leading VCs giving on the spot feedback. Real pitches, real feedback, and the kind of in-person networking that only happens when people who love hardware, build hardware, and invest in hardware are in the room.
Here's the agenda for the night:
5:30-6:30pm: Arrival & Networking
6:30-7:30pm: Pitches & Feedback
7:30-8:30pm: Networking & Wrap up
