Agenda
6:00 pm: Open Happy Hour and Networking
7:00 pm: Sponsors Intro & Special Guest: Nick Hughes
8:30 pm: Afterparty at another location
Join us as we usher in a new era of Founders Live Portland.
We'll be holding a fun happy hour, a special talk with Nick Hughes before he leaves for another Founders Live world tour, as well as a surprise popup pitch competition. If you are feeling like it, get your 99-second pitch ready (no slides on this one!) and we'll bring you up to pitch and gain feedback from the crowd.
Founders Live is an unforgettable happy hour competition sweeping the globe where up to five handpicked companies take the hot seat, with only 99 seconds to pitch their company and describe their value proposition in front of an eager audience. After the pitches and audience Q&A, the crowd will vote on a winner who will not only receive an award, but recognition from the crowd and also the opportunity to talk more about their product or service. So bring your friends and coworkers, grab some food and drink, get to know your local entrepreneurs and vote for what you think will be the next big thing... built in Portland.
We continue the great PDX startup tradition this month back in-person, which includes a great time!
WINNERS receive the Founders Live winners package which includes $10,000 in AWS credits as well as the opportunity to continue on to compete in a future Founders Live Prime Time global event.
