TechCrunch is hosting a small virtual event on April 15 for startups in Detroit and we’re still looking for a few startups to pitch at the event. The deadline is today, Friday, April 9th. Apply below. Want to attend the free event? Register here.
TechCrunch just published a feature on Detroit-darling StockX, and this meetup will feature those involved in producing that content. The EC-1 can be found here.
Everyone is welcome to attend the event, but we’re looking for startups based in Michigan’s southeast region to pitch at this event. TechCrunch has a long history of hosting small pitch-offs, and we’re excited to revive this tradition despite the need to do it virtually.
Not in Michigan? No worries. We’re spinning up similar events in other regions too. Spoiler: Pittsburgh is next.
Qualifications
- Early-stage startups (Series A or earlier)
- Startups based in the Detroit region will be given priority
- Pitch decks are highly recommended
- Apply for the pitch-off here
The event is online and free, but space is limited. Register early. We hope you can make it.
