The O’Reilly Design Conference is just a few short months away, and we’re thrilled to announce that we’ll be hosting a Startup Showcase.
We’re seeking design startups that want to pitch judges and attendees — a broad selection of venture capitalists, leaders, and innovators from the investment and design communities. Successful applicants will receive free space in the exhibit hall at the Design Conference. Onsite, a panel of judges will vote for the best in show — winners will be announced on the keynote stage and will be featured in a post on oreilly.com.
Startup requirements include:
- Must be early stage, under three years.
- Your product should not yet be launched but within view of shipping an early version, or you may bring a fairly polished prototype (you can’t show up with a laptop displaying a 3D rendering).
- Your startup must be pre-Series A.
- Your product must be scalable, repeatable — i.e., not a consultancy.
Our stellar review panel includes John Maeda of Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield and Byers; Irene Au of Khosla Ventures; Enrique Allen of Designer Fund; and many others you will recognize. Step up and tell us why your startup should be a part of the O’Reilly Design Conference.
Submissions are open through Monday November 16 — apply now.
