Ideas on Tap: Financing Business Social Meet-Up

During the past 30 years of coming to South Africa, much of the financing business has been meeting partners and like minded business people in a social setting, understanding what "value" I can give to them and vice versa and finding common economic interests to build a successful business. In 2025-2026 our group has funded over R300 million in trackable start-up pitches. This meet up is for people who are interested in investing in new companies, institutions and bankers alike, as well as new investors simply wanting to hear about new ideas. In addition, new companies and entrepreneurs are welcome to come and discuss with the savvy financiers who have been invited their ideas and pitch their ideas like a Shark-Tank like atmosphere. There will be at least 10 capital firms, a registered Venture Capital firm, and several independent investors and incubators in attendance socially within this event. The evening will start with an introduction to networking "Financing Your Business, and Funding without the Bank" by Ryan Gibson based on his experience as an equities market listing and financing specialist. This will be followed by 6-8 four minute elevator pitches of companies who are members of this group or have been hand selected. After the brief speeches and elevator pitch, the group members will be encouraged to find their space in the room and network. The concept of this meet up is "ideas on tap" and therefore has been placed in a professional lounge environment for casual, informal, but real communication. The event is at: La Salud Linden Pl, Strathavon Ext 25, Sandton, 2031, South Africa +27 11 783 6122 If you have a company that would like to be pet of the elevator pitch, please contact [email protected] so that we can review the appropriateness and stage of the business pitch for this group.
