Where Growth-Stage Founders Meet Serious Investors
We connect revenue-generating startups with aligned investors to accelerate capital formation and unlock regional opportunity.
Companies Behind The Program
Who We Are Header: Built by Investors, for Investors
Scale-Up Pitch is a private investor forum dedicated to connecting growth-stage companies with accredited investors, family offices, and venture partners who are seeking quality, scalable opportunities.
Founded through a collaboration between TEN Capital, Hawkeye Capital, nFLXn Point Group, and FBFK Law, Scale-Up Pitch was created to accelerate capital formation for high-potential companies already demonstrating traction in revenue, customers, and market validation.
Why It Matters
We believe that North Texas—and the broader innovation ecosystem across Austin, Houston, and the U.S. South—holds a wealth of investable businesses that are often overlooked by traditional venture channels. Scale-Up Pitch bridges this gap by creating a professional, relationship-driven environment where investors and founders can engage directly, exchange insights, and build long-term partnerships.
How It Works
Each month, we host a curated pitch day featuring three to four selected companies. Presenters receive 30 minutes to share their story:
- 10 minutes to present
- 10 minutes of investor Q&A
- 10 minutes of structured investor feedback
Events are held at FBFK’s offices in Plano, Texas, with optional hybrid access via Zoom. Lunch and networking sessions offer added time for founders and investors to connect in a casual, collegial setting.
How Companies Are Selected
Using the Dealum platform, applicants submit their business profiles, financials, and growth metrics. Our organizing partners review each application to highlight companies that best fit the program’s focus on traction, responsible capital use, and strong leadership.
From healthcare to enterprise tech to consumer products, Scale-Up Pitch welcomes companies with a clear path to expansion and measurable execution capability.
For Investors
For investors, Scale-Up Pitch offers a trusted venue to evaluate qualified growth-stage deals within a collaborative, non-solicitation framework.
Every participant is pre-screened, and service providers may attend by invitation only. This ensures the focus remains on meaningful capital conversations—not vendor sales or noise.
Our Broader Mission
Our broader mission is to strengthen the regional innovation ecosystem by increasing investor engagement, founder readiness, and cross-market collaboration. Through our partnerships with leading angel groups, family offices, and professional networks, Scale-Up Pitch aims to make early and growth-stage investing more efficient, transparent, and community-driven.
Looking ahead, Scale-Up Pitch plans to expand to additional cities, offering the same high-quality experience in Austin, Houston, and beyond. Each new chapter will reflect the same core principles: a curated stage for founders, a professional environment for investors, and a culture rooted in integrity, collaboration, and results.
