Startup Pitch & Themed Networking Montreal | Unlock Your Idea

29 July @ 6:00 am - 9:00 am

$12 – $21.50

You’ve been workshopping your idea with ChatGPT, not real founders. We fix that. Themed tables, 5 live pitches, one Montreal room — 3 hours.

Most of us are in the same loop. You have an idea. You workshop it with ChatGPT, read another newsletter, tell three friends who don’t quite get it. The idea stays in your head. Or worse — it never gets the kind of pushback that would have made it sharper.

We mix the room on purpose. Different industries see the same process from different angles — that’s where value compounds.

How the evening runs (3 stages)

Stage 1 — Themed Networking
You vote on the night’s themes (Fundraising, HR, GTM, Product, Pricing, Hiring — whichever wins the room). We group you by background. Each group’s representative shares the conversation’s main takeaway on stage.

Stage 2 — Pitches
5 curated startups present their idea for live feedback and investor introductions. After the event, we route their application to the right investors inside the Ascent Valley network.

Stage 3 — Chill & Network
The structured part wraps. The bar stays open. The connections you started solidify here.

Who’s in the room:

Accelerator representatives and dealflow scouts
Investors — angels, fund representatives, scouts from syndicates
Founders, Pre-seed to Series A — SaaS, AI, ClimateTech, FinTech
Operators — PMs, engineering leads, GTM leaders
Hiring leads from companies actively scaling teams
