See the room before
everyone else does.

Startup Valley puts you in a room with founders and operators across 25 cities — and sends you the best of them every other week. We don't broker deals or take a cut. We just run the rooms and curate hard.

Investors and founders shaking hands at a Startup Valley event
the check-writers are already here.
01

Curated, not crowded

Every event is built by a local host who knows the scene. Founders are vetted, the room is balanced, and you're not handed a stack of business cards.

02

Deal flow with context

You meet founders mid-build, hear them present, and talk to the operators around them — long before a deck lands in your inbox cold.

03

Twenty-five cities, one list

Active in a new market? There's probably a Startup Valley night there this month, and the same biweekly drop covers all of it.

⟶ How it actually works

We make the introductions. You make the calls.

To be clear: we're an events and community company, not a fund, broker or placement agent. We don't promise deals or take carry. Here's the honest path from a Startup Valley night to a conversation that matters.

STEP 01

Attend or subscribe

Come to an evening in your city, or just get the biweekly drop. Both are free for verified investors.

STEP 02

Spot something

A founder presents, or a company in the drop catches your eye. Every listing links to the directory.

STEP 03

Reply or walk over

Hit reply on the newsletter — it forwards straight to the founder. Or just introduce yourself on the night.

STEP 04

Take it off-platform

From there it's yours: diligence, terms, timing. We stay out of it entirely.

⟶ The biweekly drop

Five to seven
companies, every
other Tuesday.

Hand-picked from the last two weeks of pitch nights. One-line thesis each, the city they presented in, and a reply-to that forwards straight to the founder. That's the whole product.
