HEC Venture Lab Demo Day

The Demo Day is the final event of the Venture Lab program. It marks the culmination of several months of work where selected startups go through workshops, mentoring, fundraising preparation, and pitch training with the objective of becoming investment-ready.

The Venture Lab itself is designed as a student-led accelerator and VC-oriented initiative focused on helping early-stage AI and tech startups move from idea or early traction to investor readiness within a short intensive program.

Throughout the program, founders are supported by MBA/EMBA/Alumni mentors, industry experts, and VCs through sessions on topics like go-to-market strategy, fundraising, pitch decks, and scaling. The Demo Day is the moment where startups present their ventures in front of investors, entrepreneurs, alumni, and ecosystem partners to showcase their progress and potentially raise funding.
