Virginia early-stage innovative entrepreneurs:  Charlottesville Angel Network (CAN) and Virginia Small Business Development Center (VSBDC) have joined forces to help you polish your pitch presentation.

CAN and VSBDC are offering four pitch practice opportunities in 2021, with accredited angel investors in attendance. There is no cost to participate and presenter(s) will leave with actionable feedback from these angel investors.

Five applicants will be selected for each Pitch Preview event, held the first Thursday of the selected months, between 12:00-3:00 pm. Attendees commit to thirty minute time slots consisting of: 5 minutes to join and meet angels, 15 minutes to pitch, and 10 minutes for feedback. The April 29 and June 3 events will be held virtually via zoom; future events may be hybrid (virtual and in-person); hosted by Central Virginia SBDC in Charlottesville, VA.
**This is not an application for funding or a formal presentation to request investment.**
