The challenge
Investors want relevant deals, founders want the right lead investor. Converve makes sure every 1:1 meeting has substance: curated, moderated and measurable.
Dedicated categories for investors, founders and scouts. The meeting matrix controls who may request whom.
Video right inside the platform, no third party. Ideal for remote, hybrid and international investor rounds.
Session matching, speaker profiles and agenda: pitches and 1:1 meetings interlock seamlessly.
You approve who takes part and who sees whom. A protected space for sensitive investor data.
How it works
Participants build their profiles, the algorithm suggests relevant matches, both sides confirm, and Converve creates the meeting agenda. Investors get curated deals, founders get qualified conversations.
Protected space
Investors don't share their availability with everyone, and founders are reluctant to pitch to an unclear audience. With moderated access you decide who takes part, who sees whom and who may request whom. Visibility rules per category protect sensitive profiles; the platform is ISO/IEC 27001-certified, GDPR-compliant and, on request, hosted entirely in Germany.
“High-quality matching is a central success factor for our investor conference. With Converve we shape the matching process in a structured, transparent and precise way, bringing the right startups together with the right investors with purpose.” Maren Breuer, Senior Relationship Manager, HTGF
The process
From the approval workflow to lead analytics: here's how your pitch or investor event runs with Converve.
You approve who takes part: investors, founders and scouts register through dedicated tracks and add profiles with investment focus, industry and stage. Moderated access keeps the participant field at a high level.
The MyMatch algorithm suggests relevant deals to investors and the right backers to founders. Both sides confirm, and the meeting matrix controls who can even see and request whom.
Pitch sessions run in the program, 1:1 meetings clash-free around them, at the table or as a native video meeting. Afterwards the analytics show who met whom and how strong the lead quality was.
Typical pain points
These six problems are the ones we hear from VC conferences, accelerators and pitch-event organizers again and again.
An open system floods investors with unfiltered requests, and they don't come back. Moderated access, visibility rules and request quotas protect the calendars of your most important guests.
A seed-stage SaaS pitch to late-stage hardware investors helps no one. Matching aligns investment focus, industry and stage before a meeting can even be requested.
Analytics and contact exports show who met whom; messaging stays possible even after the event. Optionally, a 365-day community extends the network beyond the event day.
Native 1:1 video meetings bring them into the event anyway, without an external tool. High-Tech Gründerfonds ran its Family Day fully virtually this way, with investor networking on par with physical events.
When the best meeting overlaps with your own pitch, you lose both. Converve schedules sessions and 1:1 appointments in one shared, clash-free agenda.
Investment intentions and deal information don't belong in an open directory. Visibility rules per category, ISO/IEC 27001 certification and GDPR-compliant processing create the protected space.
Startup-investor matchmaking is the structured arrangement of 1:1 conversations between founders and investors at events such as VC conferences, demo days or pitch events. Instead of hoping for chance encounters, a platform like Converve aligns investment focus, industry and stage, suggests relevant contacts to both sides and schedules confirmed meetings as a personal agenda, at the table or as a native video meeting. High-Tech Gründerfonds, Europe's most active seed investor, organizes the matching for its Family Day with over 1,000 participants this way.
Frequently asked questions
Both sides add profiles with investment focus, industry and stage. The MyMatch algorithm suggests relevant contacts from this, both sides confirm, and Converve schedules the meetings as a personal agenda, at the table or as a native 1:1 video meeting. No meeting happens without mutual agreement.
Yes. The meeting matrix and visibility rules define per category who can see and request whom; requests can be declined, and quotas limit the number of meetings per investor. That keeps the calendar of your most important guests protected, and every conversation relevant.
Yes. 1:1 video meetings run natively in the platform, so international investors take part without traveling. High-Tech Gründerfonds ran its Family Day fully virtually, with 1:1 video meetings between startups and investors that participants compared to physical events.
Pitches are program items with speaker profiles: participants are matched to relevant sessions, streaming runs via Converve Rooms, and 1:1 appointments are scheduled clash-free around the pitch slots. Founders don't miss a meeting because they're on stage.
Among others, High-Tech Gründerfonds (Family Day with 1,087 participants most recently), Florida Venture Forum for its Venture Capital Conference, Mercury Fund and btov Partners. What all these formats have in common: high-quality founder-investor matching is the central success criterion.
Converve is ISO/IEC 27001-certified, GDPR-compliant and, on request, hosted entirely in Germany; a DPA is available. Visibility rules ensure that profiles and availability are only visible to approved participant groups: attendee data is never shared with third parties.
Converve is a B2B matchmaking specialist: the organizer keeps full control over the matching logic, no black-box AI. On top of that come moderated access, native video meetings and a dedicated account manager for every event, at no extra cost. Here matching is the core, not an add-on.
