The second pitch event, this time in Munich, will again offer start-ups the opportunity to gain expertise, rapid market access and a financial boost. Like last time, the six selected start-ups will be given the opportunity to present themselves and their business ideas to a high-calibre audience of corporate investors and venture capitalists. The pitch is aimed at B2B start-ups in the fintech, healthtech, insurtech, internet of things, mobility, public and utilities sectors.
A high-profile ten-person panel made up of investors from the finance and insurance industry as well as venture capitalists will once again choose the winner. inQventures has been able to gather together representatives from well-known companies for this: Allianz, Bayern Kapital, Coparion, Deutsche Bank, Redstone, Munich Network, Target Partners, Unternehmertum Venture Capital and WEKA Media Publishing.
The participants will be able to make contacts with corporate investors, venture capitalists and their networks. Along with financial support, strong and rapid networking with the existing industry plays a major role in ensuring a successful launch.
Frank Reinecke, General Manager of inQventures, will again be hosting this year’s “Boostival”: “We are offering the chosen start-ups a chance to attract renowned investors for their ideas and to make valuable business contacts in a short space of time.” Okiko participated in last year’s event and is testimony to this fact. The online payment service provider for children and teenagers was able to attract the attention of Deutsche Bank AG investors who were present at last year’s event (www.okiko.com).
