What is the Founder Showcase?


The Founder Showcase is a Silicon Valley’s leading international startup pitch event: helping pre-seed to seed-stage startups learn, launch, and connect to investors.

On this free online event you can watch presentations from promising pre-seed & seed-stage startups from across the globe, and learn from world-leading venture capitalists and entrepreneurs. In addition, there are several networking sessions to connect with others.
