"At the 2014 Funding Roadshow, entrepreneurs working on an innovative product will get the chance to pitch their business to a panel of angels, VCs, banks, and government organizations. Entrepreneurs will individually pitch in a closed setting to funders in order to:
- Receive candid feedback on their pitch and business model
- Meet experts who provide one-on-one tips for their business
- Follow-up with funders and potentially get funded
The 2014 Funding Roadshow is designed to better educate entrepreneurs on funding opportunities as well as facilitate connections between funders and entrepreneurs. 20 companies will pitch to a funding panel. Each company will have 5 minutes to pitch and 7 minutes for Q&A. In addition to the opportunity to pitch to Canadian funders during the event, the winning team in each city will receive a round-trip flight to San Francisco in order to meet with venture capitalists.
