It’s been a while since I’ve written about one of our Speedpitching events. Last week, when we sent out an email announcing our upcoming event on June 4th (in Utah), we received an email response from one of our previous participants:
The first Speedpitch event that I participated in was wonderful – a terrific experience. The Speedpitch put our company in front of a lot of different types of angels, got us about a dozen follow-up meetings, as well as several term sheets. It was a great position to be it having to choose between competing funding offers – and I am sure that the Speedpitch event allowed us to be in that position. We have since raised close to $1 million through equity and licensing deals and we will be looking to grow to the next level very soon.
Can I tell you how much fun it is to get emails like that? 
I won’t be in Utah in time for the June 4th Speedpitching event, but hope to participate in a future session. Looking forward to being part of the start-up community in Utah later this summer.
