You can only participate in the Power Round, if you agree to the entire cost of the program. Eligibility for this round: any tech startup raising Seed, Series A, or Series B round.

Step 01

You submit a 2-min video pitch. Once you register for Phase I, we will send you an example of a successful video pitch from our past contestants as well as a presentation with detailed instruction of how the video should be structured

Step 02

We review your video and send you detailed feedback. Our focus will be on making sure you address all points required by our investors for startup evaluation.

Step 03

You can resubmit your video, if you choose. First resubmition is free, if all instructions are followed. Every additional resubmission, or resubmission due to failure to follow the instructions, is $25.

Step 4

We send your video pitch to 200+ investors investing in your industry and stage and they will vote whether or not they are interested.

Step 5

If you get at least five votes, you advance to the next stage. If you get less than five votes, you get intros to the investors who expressed interest and are eligible to participate in Phase II to refine your pitch and financials.

We reserve the right not to send your final video pitch, if it does not meet our minimum quality standards, as our investors expect a certain level of quality from us and/or if you don't follow our submission instructions

If you have successfully passed through Phase I and II, this is what you get as a result.

Each session is structured as a thirty-min investors panel followed by targeted investor meetings where each startup team gets its own breakout room and pitches to at least five investors who already expressed interest in their startup.
