The Elevator Pitch Roundtable
Focus: Consumer Internet and Web 2.0 Entrepreneurs
For Entrepreneurs and Investors
April 27, 2006 Register now!
Event Sponsor: DLA Piper Rudnick Gray Cary US LLP
Please join us for a very special evening event geared solely for Investors and Entrepreneurs focused on Consumer Internet and Web2.0.The VC Task Force Entrepreneurs’ Gathering is an excellent opportunity for entrepreneurs to network with investors and other CXOs, present their company and idea, and hear first-hand what it takes to raise early-stage capital in 2006.
If you are an investor come and listen to entrepreneurs’ pitches. You never know where you’ll find your next deal. Find out how our panel of investors rates the entrepreneurs’ pitches; Which VCs will pass on what ideas and for what reasons and Which entrepreneurs other VCs want to talk to immediately. Please let us know if you would like to participate on one of our panels.
If you are an entrepreneur in a startup and currently seeking capital, come prepared with your best 30-second elevator pitch.
In a few succinct sentences, be able to tell:
- Who you are and what you do
- What problem or opportunity you solve and why you are the one to solve it
- How much you are looking to raise and what it will be used for
We will go around the room and allow select entrepreneurs to take the microphone. Time limits will be strictly enforced!
Our distinguished panel of top VC and early stage investors will provide brief feedback.
Panelists:
Maureen Dorney, Partner, DLA Piper Rudnick Gray Cary US LLP

Previous panelists have included investors from Vantage Point Venture Partners, LeapFrog Ventures, BlueRun Ventures, Intel Capital, Cardinal Venture Capital, Apax Partners, Levensohn Venture Partners, Keiretsu Forum, and others.
Immediately following, our panel of investors will discuss critical topics, including:
- What does it take to raise a seed or series A round in 2006—do you need customers? Do you need revenue? Do you need profitability?
- Which sectors are hot, which are over-funded, and what is on the horizon?
- What is the best way to find and approach the most appropriate investor for your firm?
Finally, we will provide time for additional networking and the exchange of business cards and executive summaries over pizza and soft drinks.
