🔄 Patent-filing date realignment · 18 Jun → 26 Jun → 03 Jul 2026
Patent FD shifted 15 Jun 2026 → 26 Jun 2026 03 Jul 2026. NDA-protected 1:1 investor pitching continues uninterrupted pre-FD (pitch deck v7.2-US / v7.1-IN under NDA). Public pitch competitions / open demo-day slots gated on dual gate (patent counsel + compliance) where any public claim is made. Investor Activity Tracker remains the source of truth for named investor pipeline + close-status. THIS tracker maps the EVENTS where new investor surfaces unlock.

📅 Recommended near-term action plan (verixa_investor_event_research)
1
Protect IP/compliance while still fundraising · Use NDA-protected 1:1 partnering until patent filing + compliance gate clear.
RESI JPM 2027 · LSX Europe · LSX USA · Biotechgate Digital · JLABS Investor Day
2
Make only 1-2 public pitch bets before seed close · Public stage requires dual gate (patent counsel + compliance) sign-off.
HLTH Startup Pitch · Slush
3
Run India strategic validation in parallel · Build India credibility that de-risks US/EU investor conversations.
India Pharma Conference · C-CAMP NBEC · T-Hub Healthcare + Lilly · BIRAC BIG
4
Do not over-invest in weak / stale leads · See "Do not prioritize" panel below.
