Build a Unicorn
Unicorn Path Event
It is a working point on the journey of companies building towards unicorn scale. EntSpace brings founders and experts together to look at real projects, challenge current strategies and identify opportunities for growth. The focus is simple: understand what needs to happen next and build the connections and actions to move forward.
Watch deals get made in real time
Fundraising is normally invisible and slow. Months of meetings behind closed doors, and outsiders only ever hear the outcome — the round that closed, the valuation that was agreed. Build a Unicorn compresses all of it into a single afternoon and puts it in the open.
The full arc of a deal
Pitch, clarifying questions, feedback, a number, terms. You see the whole sequence, not the press release at the end of it.
How investors actually think
The questions experts ask before they commit, and the reasoning behind a yes and a no — said out loud, to the founder's face.
Concentrated, not curated
Ten projects, four negotiation slots and expert feedback in one focused online afternoon.
Real stakes
Real projects, real experts, real commitments. Capital, consulting time and contacts change hands on the spot.
How the game runs
The game opens with an introduction and setup. Then ten projects take the floor in a focused pitch session, with five minutes for each project.
- Set up the simulated game and define its goals.
- Hear ten project pitches, five minutes each.
After the pitches, participants vote, find potential business partners and move through four negotiation slots. The game results and wrap-up come next, followed by feedback from experts and participants.
- Vote for Noble Cause and take part in business matching.
- Run four negotiation slots, announce the results, then hear feedback from experts and participants.
Three things an expert can invest
In-game currency
Experts buy shares in the companies. The price is not fixed by anyone — it is settled in negotiation with the founder, in front of you.
Consultation time outside the game
An expert who wants to keep working with a founder after the event commits their own hours as part of the deal.
Contacts
Potential partners, clients and experts for the project — named in the room, not promised vaguely.
The communication format
Project pitch
The founder presents the project and names the resources they are asking for.
Expert feedback
Clarifying questions, then the expert’s read on the project — what holds, what does not.
Deal making
Shares and price, or time and contacts. Terms are agreed in the room.
