Foodpreneurs Collective Pitch Lounge

The event series “Foodpreneurs Collective Pitch Lounge” has run five times per year since 2021, co-hosted by the long-running co-producers of this series – Sascha Dutta (Foodpreneurs Collective & FoodHack), Meiraj Ahmed from Meiraj a.i and Jamal Maxey (Pitch Lounge & My Guide Berlin).

This pitching opportunity suits early-stage startups, pre or post-investment or revenue. We have even hosted Seed startups wanting to come and receive feedback on their new Seed investor pitch deck to polish it later in advance of investor meetings, where the pitch deck and presenting feedback are often in short supply.

No investors are bulk invited (however, we usually host 1-2 investment industry professionals on the panel and some investors also might attend in the audience).

***

Event Format:

☑️ Introductions from host Sascha Dutta (Foodpreneurs Collective & FoodHack) and former FoodHack London Lead Ambassador and now FoodHack Dubai Ambassador

☑️ Up to six pre-selected pitches + feedback rounds (5-7 minutes to pitch plus 8-10 minutes feedback)

☑️ Brief announcements on future events and support services from Jamal Maxey (Pitch Lounge & Founder Institute).

If you have any questions, please email jamal@pitchlounge.net

Observer Tickets:

Free or donation*-based observer tickets are also available via the event page!

*Donations – while not required/expected – help safeguard the future of these events and also allows us to provide pro bono/discounted pitch hosting and coaching to very early-stage/pre-revenue startups and/or underrepresented founders.

Attend for some inspiration, to pick up some tips, and for networking!
