This is your chance to get your idea in front of a real-live VC, get some down-n-dirty feedback, and maybe even start a funding conversation. Peter Gardner from Wavepoint Ventures, LLC will give you the inside scoop on what VC’s look for, how they evaluate pitches and - because he’s the nicest VC we’ve ever met (trust us on this) - he’ll share concrete and practical ways of improving your chances of raising capital.

Wavepoint Ventures brings two unique approaches to the fundraising world: 1) they’re actively looking for deals outside the rarified corridors of Silicon Valley and 2) they're looking for capital efficient early-stage companies that can start ramping with relatively small investments (often less than $1M) and can get to exit with less than $15M).

The night will be hosted by NextSpace Co-founder and Revolutionary in Chief, Jeremy Neuner, a guy who’s had some experience raising rounds himself.

Swing by early to work in our space. Experience the NextSpace Effect, great coffee, and fast internet. Then join in for our World Famous Happy Hour at 3:58pm to get warmed up for the big event. After Peter talks, it’s your turn to take the stage. Seven lucky entrepreneurs will get to make 5-minute “speed pitches.” That’s guaranteed exposure to at least one VC and who knows who else might be listening.

General admission is $15 bucks. We’re limiting the attendance to 75 people or less, so get you tickets NOW!

Want to pitch? Please send your one-pager, executive summary, or back-of-the-napkin idea to jonathan@nextspace.us by February 22nd. We’ll notify you by Friday, February 24th if you’re chosen.
