12 Companies Advance to the OKGN Angel Summit Semi-Finals Featured Image

The battle is on and things are heating up! Our group of investors have been busy meeting week-over-week to review the 24 companies in the quarter-finals. Now, they’ve cut the list of companies in half. The remaining 12 companies participated in a pitch event where they delivered a 10-minute pitch followed by a 5-minute Q&A with the investors.

If you are just learning about our OKGN Angel Summit, it is a 10-week program where accredited investors are introduced to the world of angel investing through a guided, hands-on process where a small venture capital fund is raised, deals are screened, and an actual investment in a company is made. This process provides participating companies with a chance to learn how businesses are vetted,  perform due diligence, and make improvements on their pitch week.

This year the companies are pitching for a $145K investment. The 29 participating investors have already evaluated and refined the list from over 40 participating companies to the Top 12.

Let’s meet this year’s semi-finalists:
