Meeta.vc – Public calendar for investor appearances at events
I've always thought about the idea of getting investors to share a public calendar of their talks or presences at events as judges, etc. Do you think it would be a helpful tool for investors and entrepreneurs to meet or would it be just too creepy?
Do you usually go to certain events just to try to connect with a specific investor?
Wanted to open a discussion. (more on meeta.vc)

- brudgers 11y agoI've heard that the "top tier" investors typically limit themselves to meeting with startup entrepreneurs that have warm introductions. My impression is that they don't work contests as judges because their investment isn't really a prize, it's a straight up business transaction based on what they believe might succeed not so much the best out of six finalists. They have established relationships that produce their deal flows. The business is optimized for making money, not for high reality TV ratings. Good luck.
- meet-a-vc 11y agoTks for your contribution to the discussion, brudgers. I don't think you understood the question though. It's more about would investors be willing to reveal events/talks they will be at in a public profile like meeta.vc/investorname ?
- semilshah 11y agoI don't think investors would do it, but you can aggregate it from conferences/events.
- meet-a-vc 11y agohow about the community contributing as well? for example if you know Dave McClure will be at FailCon on august 16th, you can post the link to the event with investor name and date. We verify and post to the investor profile. Not scalable. But could generate the initial data.
