The Founder's Briefing Room: Expert Mentor Office Hours (Mentor Sign Up)
Capital Readiness Office Hours
Presented by ARise x Conductor
This session is designed for investors looking to connect with and evaluate high-potential startups preparing for their next funding round. Hosted by ARise and Conductor, the event offers a unique opportunity to meet with companies that are ready to pitch and actively preparing for capital conversations.
During this drop-in session, you'll meet with founders selected for the VC Immersions program, as well as early-stage startups actively planning their next raise. Each company will receive 1:1 feedback from subject matter experts (SMEs) in areas such as fundraising strategy, pitch storytelling, SBIR navigation, and state and federal funding incentives.
Two tracks will be running:
Founder Fast Lane: Startups preparing for VC Immersions meetings, using this time to refine their pitch and capital strategy.
Next Round Ready: Early-stage startups gearing up for their next raise and seeking expert guidance to get capital-ready.
This is your chance to meet the next wave of entrepreneurs, understand their pitch, and provide valuable feedback that can shape their future success.
