Join Under30CEO for Tough Question Competition where entrepreneurs will finally be asked THE TOUGH QUESTIONS and told what they need to hear…
At Under30CEO we want to know: “Why don’t these startups ever get asked the tough questions?…Why doesn’t anyone have the heart to tell them their business is setup to fail?”
Based on the show Shark Tank, our panel of angel investors / venture capitalists will be giving founders the feedback they need to hear.
6:30 PM Audience takes their seats for The Tough Question Competition
Gameshow Style Format:
- Five top startups will pitch to investors for 120 seconds each
- Each company will have 4 minutes of Q+A with the panel
- The audience scores each startup 1-10 in real time equating for 50% of the startup’s points
- Each investor scores the startup 1-10 and gives a 60 second explanation of their scoring
