Join Venture Atlanta Startup Showcase Live September 27^th and 28th

Over two days, Venture Atlanta Startup Showcase Live will put a select group of pre-seed and seed-stage companies on stage at Venture Atlanta. They will pitch their businesses to a huge audience of fellow innovators and a large group of interested, experienced investors. Through partnership with some of the most active funds in the Southeast, including BIP Ventures and our friends at Catalyst by Wellstar, Florida Funders, and Knoll Ventures, one pre-seed / seed-stage startup will win a $500K investment prize!  

This is one of the largest pitch competitions in the nation – the largest in Venture Atlanta history. A record number of startups – 525 in all – applied to participate. Through a highly selective and competitive application process supported by a group of experienced, seasoned investor and entrepreneur volunteers, 40 extraordinary companies made it to the next step.

Over the past few weeks, those top 40 startups participated in mentoring days and gained pitch preparation guidance from experienced volunteer mentors. And on September 13^th, those founders gathered on the rooftop in the heart of Atlanta’s innovation community to hear who the top ten startups would be. ‍
