Venture Black’s Q4 venture conference focuses on strengthening the pipeline of diversity into the Pacific Northwest entrepreneurial ecosystem’s upper strata of venture scale, high-growth, startups by demystifying pathways into venture. We will bring together founders, investors, service providers, and BIPOC university students, fostering an environment where knowledge, relationships, and opportunities can flourish. Attendees will gain valuable insights, make meaningful connections, and explore how to navigate the venture landscape effectively.
The event agenda includes a targeted keynote, an expert panel on early-stage startup funding with live Q&A, a prized pitch competition of companies currently fundraising, and a networking session with some of the Pacific Northwest startup ecosystem’s keystone institutions. Light refreshments will be served.
