We sit together with founders for a 30-45 minutes interview and give them the opportunity to share their BIG IDEA, introduce their team, explain how it all works and why they are the next BIG THING!
Next, we publish the interview on YouTube and promote it on social media channels to help investors find your company. Other founders may learn from you and even approach you for a strategic partnership.
Most importantly, we build your startup online profile on StartupBrite and then contact our private network of investors and pitch your company. Our network includes individual investors and VC funds.
Dear Nick & Team:
I am looking forward to Thursday’s session. Excuse my recent absence but I have all of you to blame 😊
I was introduced to SindyXR about a year ago when their founder, Charles Kirby, pitched the company at a Startup Bright session. Post the session, Charles reached out to me seeking a direct investment.
As part of my investment due diligence of the company & the Remote Patient Management space, I was instantly drawn into the impact potential of the category to save lives. So much so that in addition to agreeing to invest in SindyXR I agreed to become Chair of the Board, CEO & President. Not something I would ever do lightly.
We made the press announcement of my appointment yesterday:

Christopher Hill!
I got to know Nick during a pitching event at WeWork in Los Angeles. My startup, Phenium, was selected as the winner of the event, and as part of the honor was an interview with StartupBrite. I, like many others, have never liked hearing or seeing a recording of myself. However, to be successful with a startup you have to stick your jaw out and step out of your comfort zone.
Nick had arranged for us to meet at a coworking space in downtown LA. Clearly, Nick knows what he is doing, because instead of booking a very boring conference room, Nick had arranged for the video interview to take place in a very nice lounge.
Nick’s co-founder Michael Witt (and his wife) also attended. Michael arranged for all the videoing.
Nick was very professional and asked very qualified questions. He had clearly read up on the material I had sent prior to our meeting. I truly enjoyed the entire interview, and highly recommend Nick and team for such interviews.
Once the interview was published on StartupBrite’s webpage, I started to share it with potential investors and clients. We received raving feedback and it helped us collect some funding.
Thanks again, Nick!Mårten Stenfors

"StartupBrite not only gave me a new platform to reach investors, but they also gave me the opportunity to share my story through the video interview. Strongly recommended for entrepreneurs! Also, strongly recommended for investors looking to learn about startups and learn about the founders they're investing in!"
StartupBrite is a great platform for startups to tell their story. With a video interview we're able to communicate the passion behind our projects, which isn't always evident in a pitch deck. Highly recommend for both founders and investors!
Once the interview was published on StartupBrite's webpage, I started to share it with potential investors and clients. We received raving feedback and it helped us collect some funding.
Thanks again Nick!

April 28th event was very busy. We had 7 startups pitching to our investors. At this event we had an interesting clustering by companies in the healthcare industry in addition to NFT and retail startups.
On March 31st we had selected 3 startups to pitch to our panel of investors. The event allowed for investors to spend more time with the founders. We are still working on figuring out what format works best for investors and startup founders.
On March 3rd we had 5 startups that joined us and pitched to our panel of investors. As always, we kept the startups list open to companies from different industries and stages. Our goal is to keep the evening interesting and engaging for our investors, pitching founders, and guests.
