What is AlphaPitch?
DEMO is making its exceptional promotional and networking platform available for early stage entrepreneurs who may not be quite ready for a commercial launch. If you have an amazing innovation currently in alpha stage, apply to pitch at DEMO to reach an audience of top investors and potential customers who can catapult you to the next development stage and beyond.
For the first time ever, DEMOfall 09 will host up to thirty companies still currently in the prototype or development stage of their product lifecycle. Each company must be pre-revenue, and have received no more than a seed round of funding (<$500k).
Chris Shipley and Matt Marshall's VentureBeat will evaluate each applicant in order to find the most compelling new ideas to be unveiled at DEMOspring 2010. Companies selected to participate will be given:
- ninety second pitch to the entire DEMO audience in the general session ballroom,
- kiosk space in the DEMO pavilion,
- two passes to attend DEMO, and
- extensive promotional support on site and after the event on demo.com.
The fee for companies to participate is $5,000. Companies interested in taking advantage of this new opportunity must apply before January 18th.
