Denver Startup Week 2024: Pitch Competition

What an incredible evening at the TriNet PeopleForceX Pitch Competition that Cake had the opportunity to co-host for Denver Startup Week on 9/18.

The event was packed with energy, innovative ideas, and brilliant founders who showcased their ventures to an amazing group of investors including John Francis with Stout Street Capital, Alex Houghtalin with Access Venture Partners, Rio Hodges with Antler, and Shannon Flahive with Ensemble Innovation Ventures.

Huge congratulations to all the amazing founders who took the stage, and special shoutout to the winner of the pitch competition, Matthew Allen, DDS with DifferentKind—a vertical SaaS platform for dental professionals enabling them to measure and optimize patient experiences and outcomes.

Thank you to our sponsors and partners for making this event possible and to everyone who joined us to network, enjoy delicious food and drinks, and support Denver's finest founders. Another special shoutout to Kate Kozak and Clay Salley for putting such a fantastic event together.
