Join Builder Lab for a live showcase of early-stage founders building real businesses. Watch founders pitch their ideas to an expert judging panel, discover emerging startups, and meet the people behind them. Whether you are a potential customer, investor, collaborator, founder, or simply curious about what is being built in our community, you are welcome in the room.
Four hours: live pitches, presentation and workshop, followed by networking with light refreshments.
The evening
An evening built for ideas and connections
Builder Lab Showcase brings our community together for more than a pitch event.
Over four hours, selected Builder Lab founders will present their startups live, receive feedback from our judges, and share what they are building with an audience of potential customers, collaborators and investors.
Then, stay after the pitches for networking with light refreshments and meaningful connections.
The pitch programme will be presented in English, and everyone is welcome. Builder Lab is proudly Brazilian-founded, with a growing, internationally minded founder community.
From our last workshop: founders in the room, learning and building together.
