Join us for our Pitch2Sharks event, a fabulous opportunity for women and men startup founders to pitch their businesses to a panel of top vcs and angels.

Also a great opportunity to network with our guests who will include influential Bay Area investors, entrepreners and technologists. See the pictures from our July event. 

Wine and appetizers sponsored by Pivotal Labs.

Here are photos from our inaugural pitch event at Wix Lounge where we had 15 female founders pitch and the second pitch event where we had 6 female and 6 male founders pitch at Temple.

 And here are a couple of news stories covering the event -
