What we’re about
HYBRID event, in-Person location Galvanize, Boulder - Remote via Zoom (RSVP for Link)
PitchBoulder is a pitch mentoring platform offering local entrepreneurs an opportunity to present their startups to a diverse audience of mentors, advisors, investors and peers. Presenters deliver a 6-8 minute pitch deck presentation designed for investors, channel partners, co-founders, employees, etc. They then engage in 40 minutes of constructive feedback and questioning that we call crowd mentoring followed by 30 minutes of networking.
Entrepreneurs gain insight into possible ways they can improve their businesses and connect with a peer community that cares about their progress. Participants walk away having advanced their business and the audience walks away with the satisfaction of providing expert crowd-vetted coaching.
Whether presenter, mentor or passive audience member, there is much to learn every week from this dynamic and diverse community. PitchBoulder takes place at 9:00 am every Wednesday.

- Presenting: ZeroTwelve – Net-Zero Concrete, Real-World PerformanceGalvanize Boulder, Boulder, CO
ZeroTwelve (http://www.ZeroTwelve.com) - Founder Lori Tunstall presenting, is redefining sustainability in construction with a truly net-zero concrete product that maintains performance, cost, and compatibility with existing processes.
The concrete industry is one of the largest contributors to global carbon emissions, primarily due to its reliance on cement. While many green solutions exist, they often come with compromises—higher costs, reduced performance, or the need for specialized infrastructure.
ZeroTwelve changes the game by integrating carbon-negative biochar into concrete, replacing a portion of cement and actively sequestering more carbon than is emitted. The result is a net-zero concrete that performs just like traditional material but drastically reduces environmental impact—no compromise necessary.
Our target market is construction companies and ready-mix concrete providers in the US who need low-carbon solutions and are willing to adopt a new product that doesn’t sacrifice performance or increase cost.
Our competition includes companies offering carbon-offsetting mixes, performance trade-off concrete blends, and infrastructure-intensive green cement alternatives.Our competitive advantage is the ability to deliver net-zero emissions without increasing cost, sacrificing performance, or requiring any changes to current infrastructure or process.
The total market size in 2024 for concrete is $500B+ globally, with the sustainable concrete segment projected to grow to $40B by 2030.Top 3 Challenges:
– Securing early-stage funding
