How this guide works

How events are selected

The selection uses the Investors / VC category and a minimum 2-star editorial rating. It excludes generic networking events that do not clearly identify an investor audience.

Before you register

Match the room to your stage: pre-seed pitch events, VC networking and allocator gatherings serve different goals.
Prepare a concise introduction that covers the problem, traction, round and the specific investor profile you want to meet.
Do not assume an investor-only event accepts founders; verify eligibility on the official registration page.
