CrowdPitch is a platform that allows companies the opportunity to pitch their business to both a panel of investors and a live audience of other business owners. After the presentations, the panel provides real-time feedback to the entrepreneur. The winner of the event receives a prize package valued of up to $6,500.
The five entrepreneurs selected to participate in the first-time ever FundingUniverse CrowdPitch event in Denver include: Data Storage Group, Coolerado, 3C Marketplace, SatoriEDU, and CPW Solutions.
“Entrepreneurs are demonstrating a strong demand for services designed to help them get the funding they seek,” said Brock Blake, CEO of FundingUniverse. “The CrowdPitch event is one piece to our model that helps entrepreneurs find the right path to the financing. Not only does it provide real-time investor feedback, it allows the winner to walk away with a significant prize package. It has proven to be valuable for the presenter and the audience alike.”
So far this year, FundingUniverse has helped more than a thousand entrepreneurs receive over $20 million in financing and expects those numbers to continue to grow between now and year-end. FundingUniverse not only connects qualified entrepreneurs with active VC’s, angel investors and lending sources, but also helps entrepreneurs helping to create business plans and pitches, advising them on strategic business direction and papering them for investor/bank scrutiny.
