Manifest 2025 will be hosting a Startup Pitch Competition with live trading, organized by Sovereign.  

Last year’s pitch competition led to several confirmed investments in participants, and this year we’re raising the stakes with more VCs ready to invest serious amounts for the right founders. Our confirmed judges represent billions of dollars in funds and have interest in prediction markets, crypto, AI, fintech and much more. They've invested in hundreds of companies, including Manifold itself.

This market resolves YES if the VC judges agree to make investments in at least 3 companies as a result of the pitch competition by the end of August 2025. These can be non-binding agreements between the VCs and the founders or signed deals, as long as they are confidently reported to Sovereign by market close. If these criteria are not fulfilled, this market resolves to NO.

Founders are encouraged to bet in this market and comment with details of their startup. You may submit a formal application for a slot here with your pitch deck.

Is there a count for last year? Would this have resolved YES?

@Ziddletwix We didn't run last year's competition ourselves so don't know for sure, given that they never resolved most options in that market:


Looks like there were two YES resolutions confirmed.

@Sovereign_ got it!
