Zipi CEO Jesse Garcia had the incredible honor of receiving an invitation to compete in Second Century Ventures 3rd Annual iOi Pitch Battle in Dallas, TX last week.

In a battle of 12 tech startups (focused on the Real Estate industry), each competitor pitched their businesses for the opportunity to provide a live demonstration to venture capitalists, CTOs, CIOs, technology innovators, brokers and real estate professionals.

The Innovation, Opportunity and Investment Summit was a huge success for Zipi. Jesse was overwhelmed with gratitude by the responses he’d received from judges, attendees and fellow competitors.

Brokers, tech innovators, and association and MLS executives all agreed that Zipi is the modern, cloud-based operating system designed for the future of real estate. Brokers applauded during Jesse's pitch when he said, “We can’t expect brokers to compete in a Netflix world with Blockbuster technology.”
