There are literally hundreds of startup conferences around the world. At the larger events such as TechCrunch Disrupt, CES and WebSummit, governments send large delegations of startups to attend. In most cases, the startup founders are ill-prepared to optimize the results of their attendance.
Our Conference Attendance program prepares founders to attend these massive events. The Program has four (4) key elements:
Pre-Event Training. This includes training in effective networking, developing a quick, introductory pitch, identifying key 'targets' for the event and a review of sales collateral and their website.
On-Site Support During the Event. Based on the needs of the delegation, Blackbelts from the Dojo will attend the event with the delegation. It is their job to facilitate introductions and provide real-time feedback to the founders so they can improve their interactions at the event.
Curated Side Events. During the conference, the Dojo assists in creating side events with curated invitation lists. We may also create unique, dedicated investor pitch opportunities for the delegation.
Post Event Follow-up Support. In the week following the conference, the Dojo assists the founders in creating the appropriate follow-up with the opportunities that were uncovered durnig the conference.
