PitchLive.LA 2026

The pitch night of LA Tech Week, hosted at Amplify.LA: pre-seed and seed founders take the stage in the first hour in front of a judge panel from Amplify, Alpha Edison, B Capital and Bonfire Ventures. The focus is AI-native companies, agentic systems and intelligent software infrastructure, and the pitch slots went through an application that has already closed. Once the pitches end, the room turns into a networking tail of founders, operators and LA seed investors. If you are raising a pre-seed or seed round for an AI product, this is one evening in LA Tech Week where the people writing those cheques sit in the same room for a few hours, and the winner takes $50,000 in startup services plus the potential for an investment.
