The Feedback Loop | Ep. 010
Join us for Episode 010 of The Feedback Loop, a weekly live event dedicated to helping early stage founders find the essence of their pitch.
A batch of founders will get the opportunity to pitch our host, Free Agency’s Sherveen Mashayekhi — and this week’s guest host is Virginie Raphael!
Virginie Raphael is Founder & Managing Partner at FullCircle, where she invests in pre-seed startups across future of work, healthtech + caregiving, and SMB SaaS. She is on the Board of La French Tech New York, which supports French startups both in the US and abroad. She was previously an MD at Tusk Ventures for over 8 years, where she invested in early-stage companies in highly regulated spaces. She also founded Kronos Archives, a digital archiving project for leaders in finance, politics, and philanthropy.
The founders will get 5 minutes of unfiltered, constructive, and honest feedback about their pitch and concept from this dynamic duo.
There are no slides, there is no script, and it happens in real time. Because the thing that holds most founders back? -- even those who are passionate, building something interesting, on the verge of changing an industry? Storytelling. It always comes back to storytelling.
RSVP to this event if you plan to attend in-person or want to receive a link to the livestream.
Want to pitch? Apply here. PLEASE NOTE:
This is an in-person event and will be recorded and livestreamed — remember, it's all about the execution, so don't be afraid of getting your idea out into the world!
Only apply if you're comfortable being told no — because so many startups are interested and we only do ~7 pitches per event, we have a low acceptance rate.
Here’s what past participating founders had to say:
"It's not every day you get the undivided attention and insights of such amazing investors! It's high pressure, but also super fun.”
"There's no better opportunity that I have seen where you are given such a great opportunity to put your idea out there.”
“The Feedback Loop was incredibly valuable! We walked out more confident in our idea through the process of crafting our pitch.”
“This was a brilliant event. I can definitely recommend others get out there and pitch – go for it!”
