While Demo Day is our flagship pitch event, there's no shortage of opportunities for you to get in front of potential investors, partners, and users. In the past, our pitching tour has included the following events: * *Agency Pitch Event* - Startups pitch to our agency partners and more, focusing on how to add more tools to the toolbox when the agencies are pitching clients themselves. This leads to great partnerships and an even broader network for both parties. * *Procter & Gamble Pitch Event* - Startups pitch the marketers at nearby P&G headquarters to develop partnerships or corporate pilots. In the past, this has led to a partnership between "Choremonster and Crest and Oral-B":http://www.mobilemarketer.com/cms/news/content/16671.html, among others. Not many other accelerators can get you a meeting with some of the biggest brands in the world. * *Chicago & New York Investor Pitch Events* - While we believe Cincinnati is the place to be when starting up, we also recognize that there are key investors in other cities. We caravan to Chi-town and NYC each year a few weeks after Demo Day to pitch to investors that weren't able to make it to Cincinnati. * *Community Pitch Event* - Added in 2013, the Community Pitch Event is made to satisfy the interest of the local Cincinnati community in Brandery companies as with a focus on user acquisition. We noticed extremely high demand for Demo Day tickets and hated turning people away, so this is their opportunity to see the progress the teams made in four months. This one's hosted at one of our favorite venues, "Rhinegeist Brewery":http://www.rhinegeist.com. Pitch events are better with beer. Sound good?
