Investment Crowdfunding Week 2026 – Virtual

The market is growing, the regulations are evolving, and more founders and investors are paying attention than ever before. But attention alone doesn’t build an industry — standards do.

Kingscrowd’s Investment Crowdfunding Week returns for its second year — three days of live pitches, expert panels, and candid conversations designed to move this market forward. This year’s theme, Raise the Bar, reflects what we believe the industry needs most right now: better deals, better diligence, and a better case for why this model deserves a seat at the table.

Twenty hand-selected companies will pitch live — each one vetted and rated by Kingscrowd. With many of these raises closing by the end of April, these aren’t hypothetical opportunities. You’re watching founders make their case in real time, with a window to act.

And this year, the pitches have stakes. After each of the first five sessions, the audience votes for the best pitch. The five winners advance to the Championship Pitch Round — a rapid-fire final session with deeper Q&A from our judges. The champion walks away with $5,000 toward their raise. It’s part competition, part showcase, and entirely designed to surface the companies that deserve your attention.

Across two tracks — one built for investors, one built for founders — you’ll hear from the people shaping how capital moves in private markets: how to evaluate deals with conviction, how to run a raise that actually closes, and what it’s going to take for investment crowdfunding to reach its full potential.

Whether you’re deploying capital or raising it, this is where the bar gets set.
