The upcoming Lisbon Blockchain Conference is gearing up to provide startup founders with a unique opportunity to showcase their ventures to potential investors.

In a recent announcement on April 22, organizers revealed plans for a "closed-door" pitching competition as part of the event, allowing crypto startups to present their ideas directly to interested investors.

Distinguished judges for the competition include industry leaders like Subvisual CEO Robert Machado, AgileGTM General Partner Fillipo Chisari, and crypto hedge fund manager Francisco Quartin de Macedo, ensuring a thorough evaluation of all pitches due to their expertise in product development, venture capital, and investment management.

AgileGTM Capital is overseeing the competition, with applications closing at midnight GMT on April 23.

Additionally, the conference promises a comprehensive experience for both investors and founders, with additional side events powered by AgileGTM Capital.

These events kick off with an exclusive investor-only breakfast at the Nova School of Business & Economics in collaboration with VNTR Capital, laying the groundwork for productive interactions.

Throughout the day, attendees can participate in networking sessions set against the stunning backdrop of the Nova rooftop, fostering meaningful connections between investors and founders.

Hosted by Portugal's Nova SBE Blockchain Club, the fourth edition of the Lisbon Blockchain Conference revolves around the theme of "learning and networking," providing students with a valuable opportunity to expand their networks within the growing industry.

The event boasts an impressive lineup of speakers and sponsors, including Ripple, Nova Entrepreneurship Institute, Nova Data Science Knowledge Center, and Real Fevr.
