The third annual Peak Pitch event, hosted by High Peaks Venture Partners, took place last Friday, February 27th, at Hunter Mountain in the Catskills. This year’s event drew more than 50 CEO’s, entrepreneurs and Venture Capital investors together on the slopes.
At Peak Pitch entrepreneurs are paired with investors for a 6 minute chairlift ride during which they pitch their business and receive feedback from experienced capital providers. The top “pitchers” as determined by the investors then pitch the entire group at the end of the program. This year’s top pitchers, as determined by investors, were:
1. Diego Rey, GeneWeave Biosciences
2. Greg Moran, Chequed, Inc.
3. Peter Dean, UpSideOver.com
Congratulations to the top 3 for their outstanding pitches and thanks to all those who attended for making the event an enjoyable and productive experience.
High Peaks extends a special thanks to the law firms of Phillips Lytle, Duane Morris and Nixon Peabody for sponsoring the event.
