The Dublin Startup Scene - Networking and Open-Mic Pitching

Welcome to the events – not your average snooze-fest.

Tickets are free (unless you get 'em last minute 😉).

If you feel like meeting other founders and investors, this is the place to be.

But wait that is not even the main part!

Founders at The Dublin Startup Scene events take the chance of grabing the open-mic opportunity, to pitch their startup in front of their peers and inverstors.🚀

Being the first with the open-mic concept in London and now expanded to Dublin, we are definitely the place to be for founders! In Dublin, we usually pack in over 100 cool individuals: 60% founders, 15% investors, and the remaining 25%? The movers and shakers of the startup jungle. 🌪️

When you join, and if you're feeling brave, throw your hat into the ring for a chance to join the open-mic pitching - for founders and investors only (see the details below).

Doors? They swing open at 6pm, but the real magic starts around 7pm.

So, whether you're a founder with dreams bigger than your wallet, an investor hunting for the next big thing, or just someone who loves the electric energy of a startup mosh pit, The Dublin Startup Scene is where the action's at! 🎉💡

Deets on Open Mic Pitching:

• Wanna pitch? Only founders and investors are allowed.
• Keep it snappy. You’ve got 60 seconds of fame.
• Every 20 mins, 6 lucky (or unlucky, depends on nerves!) founders hit the stage for their minute in the spotlight. No prior bookings needed. We do it fair and randomly pick from the crowd of volunteers who are ready to rock the boat. Pitching is FREE. 🍻🎤

Please do not mess with your booking details. If you are clearly an operator (other) but booked as a founder, we might have to cancel your ticket.

And just so we're on the same page, when we say "startups", we mean the business with a clear view on global expansion, hunting for investments now or soon. If you're rocking it solo as a marketer or advisor, please register as "Other". Let’s keep it real. 🤟📈

Heads Up! Our events? Not for the faint-hearted. They're loud, a tad sweaty, and kinda chaotic. But that's how we love it – a bit off the wall, always buzzing, and a world away from the usual Dublin scene. 💥🔊

And for our brave pitchers, we can't make it rain investments, but we promise you’ll leave feeling like the pitching rockstar you are. 🌟🎤
