Description

We Believe In Great Companies. We Help Them Succeed.

Our goal is to bridge the gap to get startup companies funded. Are you an early-stage U.S. company seeking private capital? Does your business generate between $0 and $10 million in annual revenue? Are you willing to answer a few questions and invest some of your time to learn about the due diligence process and determine your company's fundability?

If you answered YES to any of these questions, take part in our survey today! The Most Fundable Companies program is not limited to Pepperdine student and alumni startups, and is not a pitch competition. Get objective feedback on how your business will be viewed by potential investors beyond your introductory pitch. We aim to help you think about how to structure your business and position your service or product so that you are seen as a worthy investment.

In 2021, over 3,300 startups across all 50 states were screened into the nation's top startups and selected for the annual Pepperdine Most Fundable Companies list.

------------------------

This is the annual startup competition run by Pepperdine University. Founders of U.S. based companies that make the Most Fundable Companies List will be invited to our gala event in Malibu in October and your startup will receive significant national recognition.

You do not need to be affiliated with Pepperdine to participate. All companies that advance to the second round of the competition will receive a free detailed feedback report on how they can make their company more attractive to investors.

Don't worry if you have an early stage startup and some of the questions don't seem relevant. In addition to our Most Fundable List, there will also be a Highly Promising Early-Stage List especially for pre-revenue startups. So if you haven't launched your product/service yet, don't be overly concerned about the questions that are clearly targeted at growth companies. Just answer correctly.

------------------------

The application deadline for the Summer 2022 term is February 1, 2022. The application deadline for the Fall 2022 term is May 1, 2022.
