Studio Money is a modern theater and studio-format venue in Carlsbad, CA, hosting a GCN investor conference stop in North County San Diego. The 8,500 sq ft space seats up to 300 guests theater-style and is equipped with LED video walls, wireless microphones, and a full surround sound system.
Why it works for investor events. A theater layout puts every seat facing the stage, which is ideal for pitch-focused programs where investors need to see each founder’s slides clearly. LED video walls and a full sound system mean pitch decks, product demos and video content display well for the whole room.
Event formats. Founder pitch showcases, investor conferences and panels of up to 300 guests, product demos and workshop-style sessions such as GCN’s Missing Piece to Millions programs.
Planning tips. San Diego International (SAN) is roughly 35 miles south, John Wayne Airport (SNA) is a comparable drive north, and McClellan-Palomar (CLD) serves private aviation. Founders should rehearse with the venue’s screens and microphones before their slot, and confirm parking for larger events with the venue directly.
