About the Program
Pitching Competition Roadshow annual programmes in 15 countries for 620+ female-founded startups from 2014 to 2023 Each year we engage with and help hundreds of female entrepreneurs across Europe and outside Europe. Chapter pitching events in bigest cities then a Final event for best startups from each country. Our program is designed in a way to give tangible support to founders tailor-made to early-stage needs: brand exposure, free mentoring sessions with senior professionals from diverse backgrounds/industries inviting investors and media to our local events, so involving all stakeholders. Giving prizes through our sponsors (products and/or services). The event series will regularly end with a multi-day event in cities of investors' choice (London, Budapest, etc. ). If covid and other regulations or budget require, an online version may be held instead of a physical event, which will be announced in advance. Final Event: Final 1:1 mentoring with our special experts and a second day Demo Day and investor meetings and exciting speakers. All program elements aimed to give female founders access to improve their skills, build corporate connections and network with investors, plus gain brand exposure.
