IE Venture Network

Join IE Venture Network Thursday, 4th April 2013!

This weekly pitch slam is an invaluable resource for early stage entrepreneurs, a forum for engaging the entrepreneurial community, promoting your startup, and at best securing an investment from our Investors in Residence Wayra, Highgrowth Innovation, Big Sur Ventures, and Sodena.  The Venture Network is unique in that it is a very informal gathering where startups can meet investors in an informal setting over beers and snacks and focus on what’s important; building relationships.  The Venture Network is a great way to perfect your pitch, get feedback on your product, and meet the local startup community.

This week’s panel of startup experts include:

• José Miguel Herrero, Big Sur Ventures
• José Almansa, Co-Founder  West Global Technologies
• Pilar García, Inversora

The three startups that will present their project in 7 minutes will be:

THE GRAFFTER

Did you know that there are more than 1,3 Billion Smartphones worldwide and  more than 200 million people are used to share Photos with their devices, MANY PHOTOS, more than 10 Million photos EVERY DAY. Those are our potential customers because….. “Graffter is the coolest evolution of taking pictures with the smartphone in a way never possible before, using the REAL CITY WALLS”

And as easy as you physically choose the wall (stadium, restaurant, monument, etc.) the app will visually identify the wall you are in front with NO ERROR, thanks to our technology, and will show you pictures from others and let you comment them or leave your own pictures. And why not offering those walls now forbidden as a new Virtual Space for Publicity? “With Graffter you will never see the city in the same way”

IE Venture Network will be held every Thursday, from 7pm to 9.30 pm, at “AREA 31” María de Molina 31, CP: 28006 Madrid
