The Founder Showcase is Silicon Valley’s leading international startup pitch event, helping seed-stage startups learn, launch, and connect to investors. On Wednesday, April 28th, 2021 the Founder Institute will host the 20th Global Founder Showcase, which will feature GAN Ventures Managing Partner Patrick Riley as the Keynote Speaker, and be attended by hundreds of entrepreneurs, investors, media, and executives. Anyone interested is welcome to RSVP to the event for free.

As an international pre-seed startup pitch event, the Founder Showcase gives attendees an opportunity to see pitches from up-and-coming startups before anyone else. As a result, luminary companies like UdemyRelay RidesThumbtackRealty MogulKaggle, and many more gave some of their first public pitches on the Founder Showcase stage, and previous presenters have gone on to raise over $1.5 billion in funding. 

Nearly 150 startups from 19 countries applied to pitch in this April Showcase, but after several rounds of evaluation and feedback only 10 were chosen to present on the live event. These companies are all showing promising early traction, and hail from 9 different cities, 7 countries, and 3 continents.
