Each pitcher decides the type of feedback they’d like to receive—whether it’s constructive, no-holds-barred critiques to prepare for VC funding, or broader perspectives to explore the potential of an early-stage idea. You could also share a reflective “war story” from your journey, offering lessons for others in the room to learn from.
Here’s how it works:
🔹 Roast and Toast is a fun, casual event where 5-6 pitches take the stage each night.
🔹 Each pitcher gets 10 minutes of collective time to present their idea and receive feedback from the diverse perspectives in the room.
🔹 It’s all about sparking creativity, collaboration, and innovation while building connections with like-minded people.
Whether you’re a seasoned startup founder or just starting out, Roast and Toast is the perfect way to build your network, share your vision, and spark new possibilities.
Important Note:
This is a community-led event with no sponsorship. To keep the spirit alive, we encourage everyone to bring along some food or drinks to share with the group. Let’s keep the energy high and the conversations flowing!
