Fishbowl: Tables Turned, Profits Earned

What is Fishbowl?  

A "tables turned" approach to pitching where major companies pitch funded, tech-related projects or challenges to qualified startups and creatives.  We are a marketing partner only for this event in conjunction with Atlanta Technology Angels and covello.  Registration is done through the covello website here: bit.ly/fishbowlatl  The MITEF promo code is MITH20 for a 60% discount, making the ticket price $40.

How Does It Work? 

1. Coach and Build: covello works with the pitching corporations to define the challenge and coaches them on how to clearly communicate them.

2. Curate and Bid: MIT Enterprise Forum and Atlanta Technology Angels bring an audience.  covello curates the bid process after the event.

3. Execution: covello serves as point of contact and works with presenting companies and the team you hire to finalize project.

Why Participate?
