Join Boardwave, Wilson Sonsini and HSBC Innovation Banking for festive drinks to close the year.

Earlier in the afternoon, women founders will be pitching to leading VCs at our Fundraising Pitch Clinic. This evening is a chance for them to unwind, and for the wider community to celebrate with them.

From 6pm onwards, enjoy informal conversations, new connections, drinks and light bites. Those who participate in Fundraising Pitch Clinic will get the chance to unwind after an exciting afternoon of pitching and feedback.

Bringing great people together is the heart of Boardwave’s mission. Whether you’re pitching your business, investing in new business or just keen to meet fellow leaders in tech, this is a chance to build relationships and be part of a community that supports one another’s success.

Come by the Wilson Sonsini offices for this casual but meaningful year-end meet-up with peers.

Please note that participation in Fundraising Pitch Clinic is not required to join this event.
