Gateway Gathering & Pitch Fest
Hosted by The Gateway Project

Hosted at ModernWell Minneapolis

Anyone else obsessed with AGT, The Voice, or Shark Tank?

We’re proud to sponsor the Gateway Gathering & Pitch Fest, October 6–8, a virtual event bringing together people with powerful ideas and the industry insiders who can help those ideas reach bigger stages, platforms, and audiences.

Over three days, authors, speakers, entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and visionaries will learn from Trail Angels: literary and speaker agents, editors, event producers, media experts, and other decision-makers who know what it takes to get a great idea noticed.

The lineup includes:

● Amy Gallo, Bestselling Author, Global Speaker & Contributing Editor, Harvard Business Review

● Monique Ruff-Bell, Chief Program & Strategy Officer, TED

● Joy Tutela, Literary Agent, David Black Literary Agency

● Josh Campbell, Executive Creative Director, BI Worldwide

● Tori Marra, COO & Speaker Agent, Outspoken Speakers Agency

● Deborah Kohan, Senior Partner & Managing Director, FINN Partners

Expect live pitches, insider conversations, small-group connections, and plenty of big ideas.

You’ll watch Gateway participants take the virtual stage and pitch the ideas they want to bring into the world. And there’s a twist: a few brave audience members will also get the chance to pitch their big idea on the spot.

Could that be you?

You don’t have to pitch to attend. Come to learn, make connections, and think bigger about where your own ideas could go next.
