Dorset Business Angels Pitch Presentation Event - September 2024

Join us for networking from 5.30pm in the Causerie Suite, enjoy refreshments whilst meeting and catching up with fellow investors, DBA sponsors and the DBA team.

The pitch presentations will start at 6.10pm with an introduction from our Chairman, Don McQueen.

Five carefully selected companies seeking investment will make a 15-minute pitch each, after which there is time for Q&A. Then, expressions of interest from Angel Investors are registered for further action. Once the pitch presentations are finished, those staying for dinner will enjoy a 2-course private meal with wine and a chance to start new conversations and continue those started earlier in the evening.

Pitches will be confirmed in due course:
