  • Intellectual property concerns (i.e., confidential information, trademarks, patents)

Join us for an incredible evening where you will hear from five awesome San Francisco startups—and YOU pick the winner!

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 a drink, get to know your local entrepreneurs and vote for what you think will be the next big thing... built in the Bay Area.

The Founders Live Winners Package includes $10,000 in AWS credits as well as the opportunity to compete in the Founders Live Prime Time global tournament.
