Chill & Pitch: The AI Founders Icebreaker
BOLD PITCHES. COLD PLUNGES. HOT INVESTMENTS.
Welcome to the coolest startup pitch event of Upstream Festival - the most fun, and unforgettable way to kick off!
While the tech community mingles over drinks, food, and music, selected AI founders will take the plunge—literally—to pitch their startups from inside a freezing cold ice bath. Investors will be there to listen, advise, and potentially invest in the next wave of AI innovation.
PITCH FROM THE ICE BATH

Great! You’ll have 4 min and 20 seconds to impress the crowd and Keadyn’s investors!
