7BC Venture Capital hosts small dinners of 6 to 12 VCs in cities across the US to develop relationships and share deal flow. We also host public events with insightful VC panels, presentations from our innovative portfolio companies, and engaging networking receptions. Lastly, our favorite events are our private events exclusively for our portfolio companies, LP investors in our funds, and the 7BC team. These gatherings are designed with the sole purpose of delivering enhanced value to our portfolio companies by cultivating strategic connections and fostering collaborative environments. Our diverse Limited Partners also gain value by networking with each other and discovering opportunities beyond 7BC's portfolio. In addition to orchestrating community-building events, the 7BC team actively engages in industry events, contributing as keynote speakers on a weekly basis.
Our most recent events took place in San Francisco in November, Seattle in April, and New York City in March of 2023.
We have hosted multiple events in the same 18 cities across North America, 10 cities across Europe as well as various capitals in Asia, the Middle East, and South America.
