SERIES A AND BEYOND

YOU HAVE A PRODUCT IN THE MARKET…WHAT’S NEXT?

Join Substantial & Pitchbook for a panel discussion and networking event to explore:

 

The market is saturated with conversations about how to get funding for new ventures. Instead, we’ll be discussing challenges faced, how to scale, and ultimately how to succeed once you have an MVP or a product in the market. Connect with other founders, VCs, and entrepreneurs in the Seattle area.

– What is the state of the Seattle venture and funding ecosystem?
– What trends are investors seeing in the Pacific Northwest?
– What are the most common challenges and pitfalls in growing your digital product?
– Learn from people who have successfully scaled their product.

Happy hour drinks and light appetizers will be provided.
