Join us for the second hybrid Pitch Global event of 2025, co-hosted by UC Berkeley Extension at their San Francisco Campus and online via Zoom. The event will present speakers talking about how Entrepreneurs (especially those in AI) can attract investors, especially Corporate Venture Capital (CVCs). Following these talks, Entrepreneurs will present their pitches to the audience, including a group of featured investors from our network.

Above is a picture from the 4th Pitch Global CVC Leadership Summit with leaders from SK Group and Niterra Venture Labs (rebranded from NGK CVC). Note that SK Group is the largest investor in life sciences in Korea, and our Sponsor, Niterra Venture Labs, is investing $1 billion in Startups, 50% of which is in life sciences/Health Tech. Many Tech CVCs and investors in the Pitch Global ecosystem have started investing in startups of all stages.
