The format

A closer look at the company behind the pitch.

Backers LIVE adds time, pressure, and real interaction to the company story. The broadcast can help investors understand the people involved, but the offering document remains the source for the investment facts.

One setting. Three days.

Selected founders come together for a hosted event focused on their companies, their decisions, and the work behind each pitch.

Competition with context

Live challenges and pitch sessions let the audience see how founders explain the opportunity and respond in the moment.

More than a pitch

Experts and operators work with the companies across the event, revealing the thinking behind the polished presentation.

The facts stay close

When an approved offering is open, viewers can move from the broadcast to its offering document before deciding whether to invest.

The path to LIVE

Preparation comes before the stage.

Companies enter through the equity program, prepare through Backers Bootcamp, and are considered separately for the event and for an offering on the portal.

    LIVE

    Selected companies pitch and compete. Any offering shown to investors must also pass the portal's review and approval process.

Completing Bootcamp or being selected for Backers LIVE does not guarantee that Backers will approve or launch an offering. Listing decisions remain with Backers following its review.

For companies

Put the work behind your company on camera.

Use Bootcamp to prepare the company record and pitch, then compete for a place in the Backers LIVE line-up.

  • Build the information Backers needs to review the company and proposed offering.
  • Present the company through live pitches, challenges, and expert sessions if selected.
  • Give an open offering a direct path from the broadcast to its published documents.

For investors

Watch the founder. Then read the offering.

The event adds a live view of the people and company. Your investment decision still starts with the published facts and required acknowledgements.

  • Watch live sessions or return to a replay when one is available.
  • Open the offering document, company information, and stated terms before investing.
  • Complete identity verification and the required risk acknowledgement in the investment flow.

A Backers LIVE appearance is not an endorsement or a recommendation to invest. Before investing, every purchaser must read the offering document and sign the required risk acknowledgement. Start-ups can fail, and you may lose everything you invest.
