Our event will be hosted by Entrepreneurs First.
Entrepreneurs First (EF) turns exceptional individuals into funded founders. Some might have an early idea, others may need a cofounder. What matters is their potential. We back these founders first, then give them a bridge to Silicon Valley. To date, EF-backed companies are valued at more than $11B.
This event is part of #SFTechWeek — a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring the tech ecosystem together. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
