Pitch me live.
Walk away with €20,000
or brutal honesty.
No decks in a drawer. No polite maybes. Founders get time on LinkedIn to defend their startup — and a real investment decision before they log off.
One pitch.
One check.
Right in your feed.
Tune in on LinkedIn. No sign-up. No paywall. Just real founders under real pressure with real money on the line.
How it works
Founders submit their startup. First-come-first-served queue for the selected ones. No warm intros required.
Shortlisted teams get an email with the live date. Bring proof, not fluff.
10 minutes to pitch and make the case. Then all the time needed for grilling. Unscripted, uncut, publicly witnessed.
Yes = €20,000 awarded at investment agreement signature. No = brutal, honest feedback. Both are broadcast.
Having lost our cat ourselves to poor vet care, and realizing it’s actually very common, we want to avoid anyone going though that. We quietly launched our MVP (pet services directory with verified professionals) in March. Since then we’ve attracted +500 unique users, +800 site visits, 14 verified professionals. No marketing budget spent. We have 200 people on our waiting list for online booking. We participated in Nexus where we also had 3 partnerships with top rated professionals and are currently having discussions of collaboration with pet insurance companies. We send a newsletter every month to 250 pet owners and professionals; it gets 50-60% open rate. The community is with us, we are in constant communication. We’re meeting professionals and pet owners and building this platform with and for them. We’re planning to launch online booking in September and tackle other pain points in the pet industry.

A €20K check.
No committee.
One decision.
Meet Simone La Torre, Professional Negotiator, Space Engineer, Business Manager, and Angel Investor.
One investor, one show, one line of capital, and enough impatience to write a check on air.
If you build fast, ship real, and can defend the numbers, we should talk.
If you can't, that's probably gonna be an even better episode.
