Frequently asked
Do I need a YC rejection to pitch?
Yes. Screenshot of the rejection email or it didn’t happen.
Is this just making fun of people?
No. It’s making fun of the PROCESS while genuinely helping founders get real feedback. The roast format just makes the medicine go down easier.
Will there be actual VCs in the audience?
Probably.
Can I pitch a new idea (not the one I sent YC)?
Nope. You pitch the EXACT idea YC rejected.
Where’s this happening?
Bangalore.
Who’s behind this?
This is a part of the Agentic Summer lineup by AI & Weekends and Inner Circle.
Is there a ticket to attend?
If shortlisted to present, you walk in free. For others attending, earlybird tickets will be out soon.
