May Investor Forum, In-Person

Get ready for an action-packed evening where startups and investors meet at the speed of innovation.

Keiretsu Forum SoCal unites angel investors, family offices, and venture partners from across the region for presentations, speed-matching, and high-impact collaboration. This exclusive gathering introduces a dynamic afternoon of founder pitches, curated networking, and meaningful connections — all designed to accelerate deal flow and collaboration across our shared ecosystem.

We’ll kick off with rapid-fire 5-minute founder pitches, showcasing breakthrough innovations, traction, and funding goals. Then, investors take the mic to share their focus areas and investment interests.

Next comes the highlight of the event — SpeedMatch sessions, where founders rotate through focused 10-minute meetings with investors. Every conversation is designed to spark genuine engagement, insights, and opportunity — driving real relationships and real results.

Whether you’re raising capital, sourcing new ventures, or expanding your network, this is where meaningful partnerships begin. Connect with the region’s top founders and investors shaping the future of innovation across California.
