Pitching in the Metaverse

“As the X Games for Startups, we try something new and exciting every year. In past competitions, we’ve done it in high-speed elevators and self-driving cars. This year, the local semi-finals were played on the Kaohsiung Light Rail. In today’s finals, we came to the Metaverse. This is an unprecedented experience for all of us.” said Kevin Yu, Founder of TA, the organiser of X-PITCH 2022.

X-PITCH 2022 is the first large-scale startup contest in Asia held in the Metaverse. The virtual venue includes a grand auditorium, an EXPO zone, and networking areas, just like the real world. “We create premium metaverse conference experiences.

X-PITCH Investor Matching Program

Last October 20, over 60 startups from the semi-finalists and 10 investors from the investment partners joined X-PITCH Investor Matching Program.

Since the start of the program, the startups have sent over 2700 connection requests to investors, including investors outside the official X-PITCH Investment Partners. The program will continue throughout the year, and the participants will move with conversations from pitch to in-person meetings and hopefully close their funding rounds. e27 will continue to monitor the progress of the X-PITCH startups and work with X-PITCH to further assist startups in the process.

e27 Pro Connect is the official investor relations partner for this program, and the startups who participated in the investor matching have received complimentary access for 30 days.

Pro Connect is one of the e27 Pro membership plans that gives its members access to 400+ active and verified investors and tools to assist startups in discovering and connecting with the right investors for their fundraising goals.
