Agenda:

4:00 PM – 4:30 PM → Kickoff & Community Warm-Up

We begin with a brief introduction to set the tone for the evening. Meet the hosts, understand the format, and get introduced to who’s in the room. Grab your seat, get your coffee, and say hello to fellow founders and investors.

4:30 PM – 5:30 PM → Expert-Led Session on Exit Strategies

So many founders build startups, but few actively think about how they want to exit.

We’re diving deep into Exit Strategies — a highly requested topic — where we cover:

• Why having an exit plan is essential, even in early stages
• The different types of exits: acquisitions, mergers, IPOs, ESOPs & more
• Real-world examples and red flags to watch out for
• Legal, financial, and operational prep founders often ignore

Expect a no-fluff, actionable discussion led by someone who’s been through exits and guided others too.

5:30 PM – 6:00 PM → Pitch Session: 6 Startups. 5 Minutes Each.

This is not just a pitch, it’s a chance to make an impression in front of the right people.

6 handpicked startups will get 5 minutes each to pitch their company, share their story, business model, traction, and what they’re seeking (funding, partnerships, mentorship).

Expect a focused audience of investors, advisors, and founders — no distractions, just intent.

6:00 PM – 8:00 PM → Open Networking + Conversations That Matter

This is where the magic happens.

Grab a drink, walk around, spark conversations, and create real opportunities. We’re curating a space where people actually talk business.
