Ideabaaz, a startup-investor ecosystem, has partnered with All About Music X, a music business conference, to launch 'Pitch to Investors', which is a platform connecting early-stage startups with venture capitalists and investors in the fields of music, media, entertainment and technology.
Set to take place during All About Music X from August 25 to 27, the initiative invites founders building across music technology, live entertainment, creator tools, fan engagement, AI, rights management and the broader music ecosystem to present their ideas before an investor panel.
As part of the partnership, participating startups will gain access to Ideabaaz's investor network with over ₹100 crore in investment capacity. The investor jury for this year's edition includes actor and investor Pratik Gandhi, co-founder of V3 Ventures Arjun Vaidya, co-founder and managing director of A&W Capital Paroksh Gupta, managing director of Mayfield Vikram Godse, and founder and CEO of Rest In Beats Darshan Kataria.
Commenting on the initiative, Gandhi said, “I’ve always believed that every meaningful venture starts with someone choosing to act on an idea. Platforms like ‘Pitch to Investors’ create opportunities for founders to be heard, receive honest feedback and connect with people who can help take their vision further. I’m excited to meet entrepreneurs building the future of music and entertainment.”
Vaidya added, “We’re seeing a new generation of founders building innovative businesses at the intersection of music, technology and culture. With the experience economy, this is getting even more exciting as a space. ‘Pitch to Investors’ is an opportunity to discover bold ideas early, have meaningful conversations with these founders and support their businesses. I am excited to see something new.”
Sharing more about the partnership, Jeet Wagh, Founder & CEO, Ideabaaz said, “Great ideas need more than validation; they need access. Through our partnership with All About Music X, we are creating a platform where founders building for the music and entertainment ecosystem can present directly to investors who understand the space. We look forward to discovering businesses that have the potential to shape the industry’s future.”
Chandni Soni, Business Head, All About Music added, "Access is often the hardest part of building a startup. ‘Pitch to Investors’ creates a space where founders can present their ideas directly to investors, have meaningful conversations and gain insights from people actively investing in the future of music and entertainment."
