About Event

Join us for an engaging panel discussion on the state of the evolving pre-seed and seed markets looking forward to 2025

This event is the official launch of Forum Ventures’ latest report "State of the VC Pre-Seed and Seed Market 2024-2025", which uncovers insights from 200+ pre-seed and seed deals closed between January and October 2024.

Panelists will offer actionable insights to help founders navigate the 2025 fundraising environment. It will include discussion on how investors are adapting their strategies, what they prioritize when evaluating early-stage companies, and how standout startups are positioning themselves. Our analysis delves into the heart of what drives investment decisions, the traits that define successful founders in the eyes of investors, and the shifting dynamics of early-stage investment strategies. Founders will also find practical guidance for raising capital and building resilient businesses.

We will have breakfast plus an engaging panel discussion moderated by Olivia O’Sullivan, Partner and GM of Platform at Forum Ventures.  

If you’re in NYC, this is an event you don’t want to miss.
