2025 is already shaping up to be a landmark year for Keiretsu Forum, and Denver has played a critical role in our success. Last year, Denver evolved from a promising city into a dynamic hub for quality deal flow, investor collaboration, and thought leadership. This momentum didn’t happen overnight. It was built brick by brick through the grit, collaboration, and commitment we witnessed in 2024. Entrepreneurs stepped up with bold visions and resilient execution. Investors arrived with experience, insight, and a hunger for impactful opportunities.
Now, as we wrap up the first half of 2025, it’s the perfect time to reflect on what we set in motion last year, and how we’re taking everything up a notch this June at the Denver Investor Summit.
2024: A Year of Foundation and Focus
During our Forums and other events in Denver, we featured a lineup of ambitious and growth-ready companies across the cleantech, fintech, healthcare, and AI sectors. The investor attendance was very promising, with some of the most active angels, venture capitalists, and family office investors turning up and engaging with the entrepreneurs.
But it wasn’t just about deals. Denver’s events in 2024 prioritized the community. We facilitated deeper connections between entrepreneurs and angels with shared goals. The groundwork laid last year has already sparked lasting partnerships and follow-on interest that’s fueling momentum into 2025.
And Now, All Roads Lead to Denver
The Denver Summit promises to be our most impactful gathering yet. With a focus on scale, depth, and collaboration, it will bring together the most active members of our community to connect with high-potential companies, exchange strategic insights, and create new opportunities for syndication and growth.
You can expect:
- A select slate of high-growth companies, carefully curated for investor alignment.
- Deep-dive Q&A sessions designed to spark serious dialogue and uncover value.
- Expert speakers offering actionable frameworks on investing and scaling.
- A network of seasoned angels, VCs, and strategic partners eager to engage.
But most importantly, you can expect an environment where ideas are respected, diligence is prioritized, and relationships are real. It’s not just another Summit, it’s a chance to shape the future of early-stage investing.
