BUSINESS IDEAS: PITCH & PUNSCH

DESCRIPTION

Do you have a promising business idea? Would you like to learn how to pitch the project to potential customers, partners and investors? Or are you simply interested in becoming an entrepreneur and do you want to feel the start-up groove?

At our event, there will be two experts, sharing their knowledge about pitching. On the one hand, we’ll have Désirée Dosch as a pitching expert, who will explain all about what makes a good pitch and which contents to include. On the other hand, Dr. Melchior Glatthard, who is a public speaking expert, will present and give invaluable tips on what to consider in terms of body language, speech, etc.

Afterwards, if you are interested, you will also have the opportunity to pitch your own project in two minutes to the audience and receive expert feedback. This is your stage: make the most of it!

At the end of the event, there is time to network and connect with like-minded people – with a hot mug of punsch and some light bites.
