Do not miss this years SoCal Startup Day, now Southern California's largest startup and investor conference with over 1000 attendees, hundreds of investors, and over $100,000 in prizes for our pitch competition winners!  We will have a jam packed day of festivities, exhibitors, investor panels, fireside chats, amazing food & an open bar networking party. 
Oh and if it doesn't seem like it could get any better, SoCal Startup Steve says "Why yes it does folks! We just locked down a legendary VC as our keynote speaker, but we’re keeping it a surprise till the they walk up on stage." Can you guess who it is?
This VC legend will take SoCal Startup Day to a whole new level, but you will have to show up to find out who it is. You won't want to miss what they have to say about the state of SoCal's VC & Angel Investor.
