Featured Sessions

Value-Add Investing: Beyond Capital Entrepreneurs now have numerous capital sources to explore. Increasingly, founders are prioritizing investors who offer value-add services to support their startup’s growth. Chris Hillock from Dell Technologies Capital will detail their Portfolio Development Practice.

He will explain how their team assists founding teams in refining product-market fit, creating scalable strategies, and accessing Dell Technologies’ extensive Go-to-Market resources. Presented by Dell for Entrepreneurs.

Optimizing with Customer Feedback: A superior product is insufficient for success. Early-stage companies must refine every aspect of the customer journey. This session, led by Nate Wright, VP of product marketing at UserTesting, will present tactics, best practices, and case studies.

It will demonstrate how to leverage customer feedback to understand needs, improve messaging, and enhance the overall customer experience. Presented by UserTesting.

Building High-Performance Teams: The Movile Approach Ambitious, even seemingly impossible, goals can inspire a shared vision. They motivate teams to collaborate more effectively and accelerate progress. Patrick Hruby, CEO, and Luciana Carvalho, VP, at Movile will share a proven methodology.

This methodology, taught at institutions like Harvard and Stanford, fosters a “can-do” culture to propel your startup forward. It also focuses on attracting and retaining talent through Movile’s successful “Mobile Dream” program. Presented by Movile.

Fundraising Success: Standing Out from the Crowd Securing funding is challenging, but thorough preparation significantly increases your chances. Waseem Daher, a three-time founder, will join Katie Myrick, GM at Pilot, to discuss the key performance indicators (KPIs) investors prioritize.
