Our November event is the Fourth Annual Pitch Event
Ever wanted to practice raising money from venture investors? Here's a chance, with BioE2E's Fourth Annual Pitch Event.
The Pitch Event is a master-class format where seasoned and raw entrepreneurs are welcome to learn about crafting and pitching their life sciences pitch.
This year our Pitch Event will be held on Friday, November 17, 9am - 1.30pm at California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute, 475 Brannan Street, Suite 220, San Francisco, 94107. Lunch will be served at noon and networking afterwards.
Thank you, CPMC Research Institute!
Panelists: Our panelists this year are Eric Sharps, PhD (Four Square Partners), Scott Minick (Arch Ventures) and Bryant Fong (Burrill & Co.). Constance McKee and Peter David will help prepare the entrants and moderate the event.
Eligibility: The Pitch Event is now open to the first eight submissions. Students, academics, intra- and entrepreneurs are all welcome to submit. YOU DO NOT NEED A REAL OR COMPLETE BUSINESS PLAN. The point is practicing the pitch. You will still need to
work through all the elements of the deal for the pitch, just not in a 30-page document.
Getting started: Please email a paragraph or executive summar both to Constance McKee chinarock@aol.com and Peter David pdavid@ambrozea.com . We usually take the first eight or nine ideas that are suitable for biotech private or institutional investment at some level.
Preparation #1: Constance and Peter will email you a template. This is a nine-slide presentation. We put you on a data diet: one slide for the key point of your data.
Preparation #2: Constance and Peter will set up times with you to review your pitch on Friday, November 10, at California Pacific Medical Center. You have a week to take it to the next level (and almost all of you do).
Pitch Event: Master class format. Each pitcher will be given feedback, in real time, by our three panelists about their impression and understanding of your investment opportunity. Everyone - pitchers and audience - benefit from seeing the pitch and hearing the feedback.
