Apex Venture & Tech Connect Days in Auckland

Venturing-Style Tech · Startup · Investor Day

About This Event

Apex Venture & Tech Connect Days is a four-day, venture-focused event designed around movement, conversation, and real opportunities — not long conferences.

The format combines:

short, focused presentations
frequent 20-minute coffe
a dedicated Blackboard Pitch Area
startup pitch boards
and small meeting rooms for real discussions

This is a venturing-style experience where founders, investors, and partners meet naturally, explore opportunities, and move directly into conversations.
What Makes This Event Different

This is not a classic conference.

Short presentations only (10–15 min)
No long panels
No stage pressure for startups
Continuous networking & deal flow
Clear visibility of needs and offers

People don’t just listen — they walk, talk, read, and connect.
The Blackboard Pitch System

At the center of the event is the Blackboard Pitch Area.

Each startup, project, or organizer receives a physical board (blackboard / whiteboard / paper board) where they clearly write:

Who they are
What they offer
What they are looking for

Examples:

Looking for investment
Looking for partners
Hiring / offering jobs
Looking for expert help or advisors
Looking for market entry or expansion
Looking for venues or locations

Boards stay visible all day, making opportunities easy to discover and easy to approach.
