ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Welcome to Capital Calling: a video podcast where founders pitch live, and investors decide. Our show features leading early-stage founders pitching their startups directly to leading venture capitalists, including investors from iconic firms like Draper Associates, Initialized Capital, Pioneer Fund, and SOSV. Produced by Coeus Collective Ventures in partnership with the NYU Stern Berkley Center for Entrepreneurship, the show offers an unfiltered look at how venture decisions are actually made. This is a show that takes you "behind the curtain" of venture investing: viewers see how investors evaluate teams, markets, and traction in real time, and how founders respond when the stakes are real and outcomes are uncertain.
Filmed in New York City and distributed across the @CoeusCollective YouTube channel and all podcast platforms, Capital Calling sits at the intersection of media, entrepreneurship, and capital.
Do these founders have what it takes to answer the calls of the investors? Find out on the first season of our show.
