Before discussing why the August Expo will be the new standard for all investor events, let's look at what happened last March.

Rewinding To The March Expo

On March 15th, 2024, more than 670 investors and innovators gathered at the Microsoft Conference Center in Redmond for the premier gathering of the investor ecosystem.

The Investor Capital Expo in March 2024 was the epicenter of the best innovation and deal flow, as 18 emerging companies pitched their game-changing ideas to the top investors in the country. After the presentations, both parties enjoyed dedicated one-on-one sessions to connect and discuss business models, financials, and growth strategies, generating more than 1,600 indications of interest.

LumiThera, Inc. , a healthcare company pioneering photobiomodulation treatment, was voted the Most Valuable Company. TibaRay, Inc , a radiation tech company, and Soteria Battery Innovation Group , a battery innovation company, were the first and second runner-ups.

The thought leadership shared their wisdom and perspectives with the in-person and virtual attendees. In his keynote speech, Ronald Weissman , Chair of the Angel Capital Association , shared his outlook on the current angel market landscape. Katherine Hill Ritchie , TEDCO Senior Director of Venture Funds, discussed tips on seeking high-growth potential innovations.

Keiretsu Forum member Yinan Qiu was recognized as the Most Valuable Member due to his active participation and contribution to the due diligence of portfolio companies and showcasing exceptional GRIT. The incredible turnout and energy of the investor ecosystem made the March Expo our biggest event… yet.
