Get your startup in front of what event organizers are calling “the largest regional gathering of angel investors and entrepreneurs” at this year’s 15th annual Angel Venture Fair.

The deadline has been extended, Apply here by March 10.

The all-day event will be held April 30 at Penn’s Houston Hall. 35 entrepreneurs across various industries will be chosen to pitch. Jeff Bussgang, author of “Mastering the VC Game” and partner at Boston-based Flybridge Capital Partners, will speak at the fair.

Last year, about 300 investors and entrepreneurs attended the sold-out event. Find our coverage of last year’s Angel Venture Fair here.

Companies pay $250 for the chance to pitch, $50 for students. Across the country, many angel groups ask startups to pay for the chance to pitch. Some in the angel community have pushed back, suggesting that the platform should be free. It’s a decision the entrepreneur can make.
