This year we're joining forces with other startup-focused organizations to create a combined holiday party sensation. This lively celebration will be filled with delicious food, a variety of adult beverages, games, and music to set the perfect holiday vibe. Mingle with fellow founders, investors, and community partners while enjoying a night of networking, fun, and friendly competition.

‍

Explore our demo tables, where startups will showcase their innovative products. As the consumer/CPG category has been expanding rapidly at Venture Mechanics, some of the booths will have free samples of newly-launched food and beverages.

‍

The highlight of the evening will be the "Elevator Pitch Competition"! Founders will get just 60 seconds to make their best pitch to a venture capitalist on an imaginary elevator ride.
‍

The "trapped VC" will only be allowed to emote in response to the pitch, signaling whether it captures their interest or disappoints. It’s a chance for founders to test their pitch, get feedback, and have a bit of fun while they're at it. The crowd will vote for Best Elevator Pitch, with a special gift awarded to the winner. Sign up to pitch here.

‍

Several of our allied Seattle-area startup community groups are combining their holiday parties in with this jamboree event. Be sure to stop by their tables to learn more about them.
