Visibility Pitch
Idea or Pre-Seed phase
Visibility Pitch
Idea or Pre-Seed phase
For teams that need to be seen before they need a term sheet.
- Where
- In the Olympiabahn. A bigger cabin, a bigger room, and the whole ride up to make an impression.
- Who listens
- A mixed audience: investors, corporates, incubators and accelerators, plus the ecosystem players who support startups at this stage.
- What you take home
- Visibility and the contacts that come with it. Direct feedback on your pitch, first conversations, and people who still know your name back in the valley.
Funding Pitch
Seed, Series A and Series B+ phase
Funding Pitch
Seed, Series A and Series B+ phase
The funding ride, for teams that are actively raising right now.
- Where
- In the gondola. A small cabin: your team and the investors we matched you with, nobody else.
- Who listens
- Investors who actively deploy capital. Matched to your stage, sector and round before the event, so they board with your deck already read.
- What you take home
- A concrete fundraising conversation. Pitch on the way up, questions until the top station, and a follow-up that starts the same day.
