At each ER event, there is a prominent VC/Investor as the featured speaker. The distinguished VC/Investor gives feedback and advise to the startups that pitches their companies in a highly-interactive setup.
Format for ER events
1. Introductory speech from the investor
2. Short introductions from each attendee
3. Q&A with the investor
4. Pitches from startups followed by feedback and recommendations from the investor and the attendees.
ER events are designed to provide maximum take-away for each attendee and are very educational as well as a great opportunity for networking.
