VCTaskforce - Life Sciences VC Pitch April 22, 2010

The Life Science VC Connection programs through VC Taskforce offer an opportunity for entrepreneurs seeking start up funding to pitch in front of a distinguished panel of investors. VC Taskforce and Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, LLP have partnered to bring to you a scintillating program series to bring entrepreneurs and VCs together in the life science fields. The evening will be exciting and a terrific learning experience for all entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs learn what VCs are looking for in a pitch presentation.

Entrepreneurs seeking capital will pitch for 2 minutes in front of the VC panel. This is followed by 5 minutes of Q&A and then a non-rebuttal feedback by the panel. A score of (1-5) is given to each presenting company by each panel member. Please note that pitching time limits will be strictly enforced!

This is a great opportunity for entrepreneurs to network with investors, present their company, and hear first-hand what it takes to raise early-stage capital in 2010. If you are an entrepreneur in a startup that is currently seeking capital, and would like to present your best 2 minutes elevator pitch to a panel of VCs, you must register in advance and have confirmation from the program manager that you are on the list of presenters. The maximum number of presenters is limited to ten.
