This annual event is more than just a pitch competition. Participants receive training to craft their pitch, and more importantly their business plan.
Legal Readiness – Has the company thought thru the legal aspects of their business. From partner agreements to Intellectual property.
Business Readiness – Does the company know what they need to be ready for business. From taxation when selling abroad, to corporate structure. In many cases having your “house in order” will be key to future VC funding or acquisition.
Growth Readiness – Participants and judged on their plan for scaling their sales, marketing and customer acquisition plan.
After being scored across those business areas, each company will face off in front of the Investor Lions. The Investor Lions are chosen from our investment community, after hearing their pitches and reviewing each readiness scorecard, they choose the winners of our grand prizes.
