Frequently
Asked Questions

What stages are these startups in?

Pre-Seed to Series A.

Do I need to book a demo to try out the products and services?

No booking is required. Explore the demos and chat with our founders at your own pace throughout the evening.

Is the Startup Showcase in-person only, or is there a hybrid option?

This event is designed to be an in-person experience to create opportunities for real-time product feedback through hands-on product exploration.

If I'm on the waitlist, can I still get into the Startup Showcase?

You may be able to get into the Startup Showcase, but that will depend on capacity on the evening of the event. Confirmed guests get priority entry, so request to attend early to avoid missing out on all the fun!
