The selected 5 Finalists will pitch on September 29th 2027 at the event.

Your pitch deck should clearly include the problems you're solving, your solution, business model, market, traction, and team. Here is a good reference for you: How to structure your pitch deck

Your 60 second pitch video should clearly convey your startup’s purpose, the problem you're solving and why it matters - no jargon, just clarity and confidence. Aim to spark curiosity and make investors want to hear more.

The video must not be more than 60 seconds - submissions longer than this will NOT BE CONSIDERED. It must be in English and clearly show your upper body (sitting or standing). Submit your video via YouTube or Vimeo URL. Reference video: The 1 minute Pitch - Keep it Simple
