UNMET UTAH 2021

UNMET Conferences meet the fundraising needs of early-stage companies throughout the country.

UNMET Utah 2021, co-hosted by Kickstart Fund and Stout Street Capital, is set to attract more than 60 of the fastest-growing Seed and Series A startups from Utah and around the country. Presenting companies will have the opportunity to pitch their business ideas to more than 200 institutional Venture Capital investors from around the world – and to network with peers.

The UNMET Utah 2021 virtual conference will be hosted on Thumbraise, a video-pitch platform that enables founders to create short-form video pitches – similar to Instagram Stories – about their companies. Founders and investors can then meet one-on-one on a privately hosted network.

Dates: May 4th – May 31st, 2021

Spending 24 hours and meeting this many founders and investors in Middle America is fascinating.

Kathleen Craig, HTMA

“If you are a company or an investor and you want to meet 15-20 potential partners, why not do it in 24-48 hours period through UNMET as opposed to over weeks and getting on planes.”

Brian Zimbelman, Crawley Ventures

Meeting 12-15 companies within our thesis and co-investors in 24 hours is highly efficient.

“There are tremendous opportunities at UNMET with all the companies here as companies are growing and looking to be connected with people. Great way to get our names out there and assist companies through that transition.
