The Investors Choice® Conference continues to help emerging companies improve their business pitch, gain business insight and attract potential investors.

29 companies will be pitching at this year's Conference.
Companies will be high growth, high tech, and will be selected by your colleagues in the venture capital industry. Each company will be individually mentored for up to eight weeks by a team of professionals from the venture community. This meticulous process ensures high quality venture opportunities. Later stage and early stage companies will be featured from all technology industries.
