In this online session designed for the Elmira community, you will learn about the secrets to find clients & investors at tech events. Many founders and professionals in our area attend these gatherings but struggle to make meaningful connections that lead to business growth or funding. We will explore practical, straightforward strategies to turn your next event attendance into a success, right from your home or office in Elmira.

Tech events can feel overwhelming. With so many people and so much happening, it's easy for Elmira-based entrepreneurs to get lost in the crowd. You might collect a stack of business cards but end up with few real leads. This online talk is designed to change that by providing a clear framework for navigating these environments with a specific purpose. It focuses on methodical preparation and execution rather than just showing up and hoping for the best.

You will get insights on several key areas:

• Pre-event preparation that goes beyond just booking a ticket. Understand how to research attendees and create a target list of individuals you need to meet.
• Strategies for approaching and engaging potential clients or investors in a natural, non-salesy way in a digital or physical setting.
• How to craft a memorable and concise pitch that clearly communicates your value proposition in under a minute.
• The art of the follow-up. Discover simple techniques to continue the conversation after the event and build lasting professional relationships.
• Common mistakes to avoid that can ruin your chances of securing a meeting or a deal.

This discussion moves beyond generic networking advice. It focuses on actionable steps you can take immediately from wherever you are. Understanding the secrets to find clients & investors at tech events is about being strategic, not just busy. Join us for this session, created with the Elmira tech scene in mind but accessible globally, to discover how to maximize your return on investment from every conference, summit, or meetup you attend.
