WHAT IS THE GAUNTLET?

The Gauntlet is a forum in which start-ups, investors and corporate America converge, and has been likened
to American Idol meets Venture Capital.
 
It is an interactive platform at which emerging start-ups and developing companies present their ideas and
themselves to a high-caliber audience and expert panel
 
Each Gauntlet is assigned a theme relevant to a particular industry vertical, such as mobile applications,
interactive advertising, financial services and the social web.
 
A team of Hatchery experts review submissions and applications from the pool of emerging start-ups and
early-stage companies, months prior to the events.
 
Three presenters are chosen in line with the respective Gauntlet theme to appear before the panel of experts
and general audience.
 
The expert panel participants are chosen for their level of experience and skill in each Gauntlet’s respective
theme/category.
 
General audience attendance is strictly invitation-only to ensure that the chosen theme is of relevance to the
audience.
