Pitch Purpose

An Evening of Investor Perspectives and Founder Pitches Join us as LA’s most promising impact-driven businesses pitch their transformative ideas to prominent investors. The featured businesses are impacting everything from health to entertainment through innovative, ethical applications of AI and creative business design. If you’re an entrepreneur looking to get in front of angels & VCs and be inspired by the dynamic startup community here in LA, this is for you. For seed-stage investors, you’ll have access to a curated group of LA’s most promising startups, many of whom graduated from KINN’s Founder Sprint Studio. There are one or two spots available conscious entrepreneurs with refined pitches currently raising a Seed or Series A round. If you want to apply to pitch, we have limited slots for participants, so please apply here by Wednesday, April 22, 2026.
