Lightning Strikes Twice – Two Demo Days in November

Lightning Strikes Twice – Two Demo Days in November

Lightning Lab will deliver two demo days in November, one for each of the two verticals currently in session – Lighting Lab Digital in Christchurch and Lightning Lab Manufacturing in Wellington. Ticket priority will be given to stakeholders and investors. A live stream will be available for anyone unable to attend.

Demo Days are a chance for each cohort to pitch to investors at the conclusion of their 12-week programme as an opportunity to secure capital and continue to grow their startups.

Lightning Lab programmes leverage seed capital as well as the expertise, experience and connections of the mentors to best prepare participating startups for investment. This reduces the risk to investors and startups by providing structure, startup methodologies and business skills so they can successfully prove and build their startups. This model has proved extremely successful, with the previous 3 Demo Days attracting over $8M of investment in total.

To get a feel for what to expect of a Demo Day, check out the highlights from the last Lightning Lab Demo Day in Auckland.
