Venture Networks Area 31 are weekly pitch slams held every Thursday at 7pm in IE Business School’s Area 31 (lower level of María de Molina 31). Startups give a 7-minute pitch in English, hear feedback from the panel of startup experts and audience, learn tips for their next pitch, and meet the local startup community. This informal event is a great way to learn and network with people from within and outside of IE while enjoying a beer from our sponsor, Heineken.

Startups do not need to be affiliated with IE and can apply to pitch on a rolling basis.

This event is open to the public.

More information available here.
