We've admitted 65 brilliant founders into Pitches 2 B!tches 8 and we're so excited by what they're building. Our angels have the daunting task of selecting just 10 semifinalists, and then narrowing to 5 finalists who will take the mic at the P2B8 Mainstage on Friday, October 25th in downtown Seattle, where they'll offer an investment deal to one winner. The investors and founders have a lot of work ahead of them. But all you have to do is click that button and buy a ticket. If you're a woman who has been thinking about angel investing, we especially want to see you in the room. We'll even share our cowbell. Come experience the magic of women supporting women. https://lnkd.in/gkSNPWjz
