Michael Gibstine, Managing Director, Hanover International, INVESTOR.

Michael has attended many in person events.

I work in Silicon Valley and attend many venture forums and investment summits. If you select one event to attend this year, I highly recommend Angel Launch events, either Silicon Valley Funding Summit in Las Vegas or Silicon Valley Investing Summit on Oct 1 in San Francisco. I have known the founder Zahava Stroud for eight years, and she produces the best regarded, highest quality summits for startups and investors. The events feature high quality innovative attendees from startups, investors and corporate partners; exciting customer experience with lavish food and drinks; and exceptional attendee experience with engaging discussions.

The events are impeccably organized with well crafted, thoughtful agendas addressing emerging tech trends; excellent speakers from top tier investment firms, VCs, corporate brands, and angels; and high level networking opportunities with demo tables. I have had follow up discussions with many high quality startups or advanced growth companies seeking capital. I highly recommend this summit to any person, company or agency that wants to bolster its connections to Silicon Valley; network with investors; meet high growth startups looking to expand their offices; and learn how to emulate Silicon Valley in your region.

Yuen Lee, Accredited Angel INVESTOR

Yuen attended an event as an investor judge April 2019.

I am an accredited investor based in Seattle, commuting to the SF bay area to meet prospective startups. Having attended angel events in the Bay Area, I was impressed by the April 2019 Angel Launch venture forum and pitch night produced by Zahava Stroud.

Zahava and her team are excellent hosts and the startups presenting had funding potential. I have since made follow up contacts for due diligence and can recommend Angel Launch events to investors and startups. I personally will be attending future Angel Launch events.

Peter Voss, CEO & Chief Scientist, Aigo.io, STARTUP PITCH

Peter pitched at several live startup events.

I am the founder of Aigo.io, an AI/Blockchain startup based in Los Angeles, and have pitched at many road shows and ICO conferences around the country to raise funds. I recently learned about the Angel Launch VIP Investor Dinner in Palo Alto, and our team made a last minute decision to fly to the bay area and sponsor a 10 minute pitch. I am sure glad we made that decision. This was the best event I have attended at a very reasonable cost. We have attended many ICO and pitch events and spent thousands of dollars on travel, sponsorship and marketing, but out of those other events, Angel Launch was superb. The program was extremely well organized and moderated by Angel Launch founder Zahava Stroud.

I pitched to an attentive audience full of investors, and the casual atmosphere with ample food and drinks encouraged networking with accredited investors, including top tier VCs, and angels who were highly engaged. I already had follow up appointments the next day with investors. If you are considering sponsoring or pitching at any ICO or blockchain venture forum, I recommend you attend Angel Launch events such as their next VIP dinner or Blockchain Funding Summit. I know we already plan to pitch at future events to meet more quality investors.

Yuval Herman, Community Manager, Deep Tech Showcase, EVENT CLIENT:

Angel Launch produced a virtual venture forum recruiting US investors and audience on Deep Tech.

The event was really amazing, and we wanted to reach out to you and say thank you for doing such good work organizing everything and bringing the numbers of attendees that were present.

We are looking forward to working together on more events in the future,
