Description
The PEI- PITCH101 is an inspiring event that brings together startups, students, young and seasoned entrepreneurs, investors, and mentors.
This event starts off with an hour long inspiring "fireside discussion" between invited guests and the audience on "Access to Capital", followed by a 30 minute networking break. Next, up to fifteen young entrepreneurs will pitch for one minute to a panel of experienced pitch-judges and the audience. These pitches are designed to be the first step in helping prepare these entrepreneurs and perhaps those in the audience to develop longer pitches and/or demos for when they meet real-time investors and potential partners. After each pitch the pitch-judges will provide direct feedback to the pitchers and the audience will be able to vote for their favourite pitch electronically via smart phone technology. All results will be tabulated and announced by a sponsoring accounting firm during the closing reception providing a casual, but, focused networking finale for all the participants.
Founding Partners: Regional Venture Capital Fund, Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency Event Sponsors: Greater Charlottetown Area Chamber of Commerce, Innovation PEI, Canadian Youth Business Foundation Supporting Sponsors: UPEI School of Business, Entrepreneurs Forum, Invest Atlantic
