Wakeup... Startup!
🎤 Founders Open Mic for Pitch Practice
Ready to refine your pitch? Stop practicing in the mirror and join us for Wakeup-Startup!
This isn't a high-stakes investor meeting; it's a safe, supportive space for early-stage founders like you to test their ideas, present their latest pitch deck, and get blunt, actionable feedback from a community of fellow entrepreneurs and mentors. Whether you have a flawless 60-second elevator pitch or a sprawling 10-minute presentation, this is your chance to stress-test your narrative and identify weaknesses before you meet with potential investors or customers.
Real Feedback
Get specific, constructive criticism on your presentation style, product-market fit, and value proposition.
Networking
Connect with other founders facing similar challenges.
Confidence Building
Practice in a low-pressure environment to boost your public speaking skills.
Space is limited for presenters, so sign up early to reserve your spot! Spectators and feedback providers are always welcome.
