LebNet in partnership with LIFE, is launching a NY Pitch Night on Thursday, October 17, at the Offices of Gibson, Dunn and Crutcher LLP, followed by networking drinks. This event will showcase 8 Lebanese entrepreneurs, giving them a platform to present their ventures, meet potential investors, and expand their network. Prior to the event, they will also receive hands-on support from mentors from the LIFE or LebNet networks. If you haven’t booked yet, please do so by Friday, October 11, as places are limited. To kick off the evening, we’ll host a Fireside Chat: "Meet the Founders Who Secured $70M+ in VC Funding." Habib Kairouz, Managing Partner at Rho Capital, will lead an engaging discussion featuring 3 accomplished Lebanese entrepreneurs: Khaled Kteily (founder and CEO of Legacy), Alice Nawfal (co-founder and COO of Notabene), and Patrick Obeid (CEO of ESG Flo). Together, they will share insights into their startup journeys and how they successfully raised multi-million-dollar investments. The following companies have been selected by the committee: We'd like to express our gratitude to E14 and RHO for generously sponsoring the event, as well as our outreach partners—BDD, Endeavor, Viaka, and the NY alumni chapters of LAU and AUB. A special thank you to LIFE Board Member, Marwan Azzi, for hosting us at his offices.
