Raising early pre seed investment can be quite a challenge for startup founders who don’t have a wide network or connections to investors and mentors.
That’s where the Sunset Raise Pitch Night from Raise Ventures comes in. This exciting pitching event will showcase potential high growth, early stage tech startups at University of Ulster Academy Restaurant on Wednesday 29th March, and you're welcome to join us.
Entrepreneurs and investors alike will watch pitches and enjoy networking at the Academy Restaurant in the recently opened Ulster University Campus on York Street overlooking St Anne’s Cathedral.
Brought to you by Raise Ventures, a tech accelerator supporting early stage companies across Northern Ireland - we are excited to showcase a range of industries including digital health, fitness, cyber security, creative, agritech and deep tech.
Supported by HSBC, one of the world's multinational banking and financial services organisation, which has both retail and corporate banking here in Northern Ireland.
Scott Wilson Head of Corporate Banking at HSBC says “We serve a number of innovative and fast-growing firms across Technology and Life-Science sectors both in the UK and Internationally. Partnering with the Raise Pitch Night offers HSBC the chance to showcase how we are keen to support high growth tech start-ups from the earliest stage to build their network, grow and scale from Northern Ireland right across the globe."
Jenny Ervine CEO and Cofounder of Raise Ventures says “Our Raise Pitch Nights offer a rare opportunity for startup founders to pitch and talk to a network of investors they wouldn’t meet in their day to day lives. We strive to create good conversations, real value and great connections for startups and investors alike.
As these companies grow and scale we are delighted to have the connections and support of HSBC who have the reach and network to take the companies from Northern Ireland to an international audience.”
