We had a sold out event
In the basement of
@happydogcleveland
Over 30 women and allies building together ๐ ๏ธ
Learning skills to carry forward and solving real solutions.
Women who described themselves as tech โbabiesโ
Built real apps and websites,
By the end calling themselves โ12-month oldsโ.
Seasoned tech executives and software developers
Blown-away with what Lovableโs AI builder can do.
Apps and websites built in 1 hour
that usually take 12+ hours.
Thank you
@lovable.dev ,
@claudeai , and Stripe for supporting this day,
and everyone else who helped us
pull this together in less than one week!

#Clevelandโs innovation scene descended
On
@brotherslounge .
A low-stakes environment to practice
& finetune communication skills.
For real scenarios.
The lesson?
Knowing your audience
and tailoring your pitch in real-time.
The audience shouted a profession.
The pitcher adjusted to it.
Another sold-out event.
Over 60 attendees.
We laughed.
We cried.
And left with real, actionable feedback
on how to improve our communication.
We built new connections.
Connections so good we couldn't end the night,
and took over the diner across the street.
Thank you to our sponsors:

Next #Pitchprov coming April 2026.
