The VC TaskForce Elevator Pitch Roundtable is a great 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. Each of our events has consistently drawn an excellent entrepreneur-to-investor ratio.

If you are an entrepreneur in a Bay Area startup and currently seeking capital, come prepared with your best elevator pitch and copies of your Executive Summary.

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 rate the entrepreneurs’ pitches; which VCs pass and for what reasons; and, which entrepreneurs other VCs want to talk to ASAP. Please let us know if you would like to participate on one of our panels. 
During the evening, a select number of entrepreneurs will present their pitch to the entire room.  Our distinguished panel of early stage investors will ask questions and provide brief feedback. Previous panelists have included investors from Vantage Point, Hummer Winblad, WaldenVC, Gabriel Venture Partners, Cardinal Ventures, Bay Partners, Interwest, LeapFrog, Intel Capital, BlueRun, Apax Partners, Levensohn, Keiretsu Forum, Sand Hill Angels, and many others.  The event is moderated by Susan Boedy and Nathan Beckord of VentureArchetypes (www.venturearchetypes.com). Please note that pitching time limits will be strictly enforced!
 
Our lively panel discussion and Q&A will also provide critical insight into what it takes to raise capital today.

Our panelists include:

Matthew Fix, Investment Manager, Intel Capital
Jeff Karras, Principal, Levensohn Venture Partners
Tom Schulz, Member, The Angels’ Forum and Halo Fund
Jim Simmons, Entrepreneur-in-Residence, Draper Richards

If you wish to give your pitch, please register and then email , who will provide you with further instructions and advice.
