Innovation Bay - 3rd Angel Dinner March 16th

03 March 2010

We are looking to bring together a select group of individuals who have been successful within the Australian technology market to engage with the next generation of entrepreneurs.

Our third angel dinner will be held on Tuesday 16 March 2010.

For those who want to attend the dinner as an "Angel" or adviser, or just interested party, this is an invitation only event, even for members. If you are a member and feel that you should be invited, please let us know. We are looking to bring together a select group of individuals who have been successful within the Australian technology market to engage with the next generation of entrepreneurs.

The format of the dinner will be in true Innovation Bay style, relaxed, open and with a focus on knowledge sharing. The venue will be at our private dining location (Tablefor20 in Surry Hills) where no more than 30 guests will gather to hear and engage with three technology entrepreneurs.

For the businesses, they will gain a tremendous opportunity to pitch their idea to a hugely accomplished talent base.

For the attendees, it's a great chance to mingle with some exceptional people, to hear from three exciting and innovative businesses and to "give something back" to Australian entrepreneurs who need our help. For everyone involved we expect there to be investment and talent-gathering opportunities.

The price will be $100 payable on the night - cash (the folding stuff) preferred.

Our thanks to NICTA for sponsoring this event.

The Twitter hashtag for this event will be #ibayangels

Our previous dinners have been highly successful for our presenting companies. We are consequently receiving loads of requests from potential presenters. We can only accept three companies for this event and that makes it tough on the selection panel and also on you to know how to pitch to us. The good news is that we've decided to up the ante and give you an unprecedented opportunity to extend beyond business plans and static summaries in your efforts to be one of the top three companies pitching to our members.

If you want to pitch. here's what we would like you to do:

* Knock up an elevator pitch video

* Explaining your value prop in a strong and punchy format

* As pointers: - business overview, hurt & solution, the market and your timing, why you are poised to succeed

* Any video format acceptable

* 90 seconds only

* Email Innovation Bay

* Get it in by COB Tues 9th March

Go crazy, use your computer webcam, dust off the Flip or roll out the pro video team - your choice. We'll let you know on Friday 12th March if you'll be presenting on the 16th!

If you are a start-up and would like the opportunity to pitch your idea to this amazing group, email us here.

  • "MitchelLake has recruited 6 staff members for us over the past 12 months. The difference between their offering and that of other recruiters is that MitchelLake accurately describe their candidates and genuinely understand our culture and our organizational needs – which gives me confidence when I brief them on new roles. In addition, it means I’m happy to meet with candidates they put forward even when we’re not looking – because I know it will be worth my while to meet someone they have recommended. No other recruitment agency has provided the level of service or professionalism that we have experienced with Mitchel Lake."Brent Annells :: MD @ Tribal DDB
