Pitch 2009
Pitch 2009 is a chance for startups in early-stage or alpha/beta phase to
showcase their business idea in front of a panel of angel investors, women
executives and noted venture capital partners like Mohr Davidow Ventures,
Clearstone Ventures, CMEA Capital, First Round Capital and many more. This
year's contest winner will also be offered an hour meeting with Michael
Moritz of Sequoia Capital (in addition to free office space, legal services,
and marketing and PR support).

Entering startups (with at least one female founding member) are asked to
record a 2-minute video pitch and send along a cocktail napkin with their
business plan scribbled on it, and all will receive valuable feedback from
the judging panel of investors and experienced startup executives. The
deadline to apply is April 10 and five startups will pitch live on May 7th
(http://pitch2009.eventbrite.com/).

Despite the downturn in the economy, many entrepreneurs and VCs are saying
that now is a great time to start a company. Apply now at:
