Sample FKA Pitch Video

2/10/2017

 
First a  VUCA   word, and now the  VOOZA  company.
​FKAngel Rudi Bublitz  has looked more closely at VOOZA and  is keen to bring this startup to  pitch night in order to enlist other FKAngels to  help with collective  diligence.

First though this pitch video has to get support from a simple majority of angels in the limited partnership to proceed. But will it?

  • "To come up with something truely amazing you have to ignore common sense."
  • "Then also, we steal data from your phone and sell it."
  • " We make sure our app is filled with authenticity."
  • "What if you photo filter had an API , and what if that API had it's own photo filter?"
  • "Great idea but then we found out it was illegal, so then we had to pivot."
  • "...a bit like Quora but without the questions."
  • "If you look at how much we've failed  that's where you can see how smart we've become."
  • "We believe in radical, impactful  transparency, something that we call RADIMPARENCY."

Sample FKA DD Vᴏᴛᴇ

31/5/2016

The DD Vᴏᴛᴇ is  a crucial step in the  investment process at FKA.  Any of our angels  who sees value in a startup  can bring it to our monthly pitch night.  A frank but courteous Q+A sessions follow every pitch. In order that all FKAngels who are limited partners  in the  partnership  can review the proposition we conduct an electronic DD Vᴏᴛᴇ. If we have support from a simple majority then the champion can proceed to diligence with the help of typically four to five other angels.

DD Vote #020

Glory League

A little later than usual but a really great video, all packed into just 8:15 min. Even if you saw the live pitch last Tuesday you should still watch the video. It fills in where the video playback on the night failed.
Here what champion David Kelly has to say.

"I first met Louis Latty and his venture Glory League in early 2014 through my involvement with Massey University's E-Centre. I was impressed by Louis's deep understanding of his market, his vision of the future, his openness to learning and his commitment to making it happen.
Louis was an amateur basketball player and loved every moment of playing basketball but felt the experience for an amateur player could be completely revolutionised through a higher level of online social engagement. By allowing players to capture their 'moments of amateur glory' and then share those moments with other players, friends and family, their engagement and overall enjoyment of the sport would go to another level and there would be many follow-on benefits for the sport itself.
I agreed to provide some early funding to Glory League along with a couple of other investors. Since that time, Glory League has developed its platform and the key technologies behind its platform. It has also brought on board a number of key basketball associations as its first customers.
Glory League is now looking for its next stage of funding and I felt that it is at the stage where it may be of interest to the Flying Kiwi Angels."
Here the Pitch Video with Louis Gordon-Latty.
