FImpact Berlin Focus on Impact: Pitch Your Startup to Investors and Experts

Do you have a startup, or a strong idea for a startup?

Could you use blunt, honest feedback on your startup ideas?

On this live and interactive online event you can pitch your ideas to a panel of Germany startup investors and experts for feedback.

Even if you don't want to pitch, you are invited to hear startup ideas and watch how the experts analyse businesses.

We will call the pitching founders from the participants.

From each of the 3 open mic pitching events we will give 1 Founder the opportunity to launch a company in our idea-stage startup accelerator, free of charge (entrance fee waived)!
