Start-up Contestants
Spread your ideas in a fun way
Within the start-up community, an “elevator pitch” is a short summary
of your business model, ideally delivered in less time than it takes to
ride an elevator, but compelling enough to get a follow-up meeting. To
win an investor's heart, you have to get your own "elevator pitch"
ready.
This competition will give startups opportunities to:
- Win up to US$200K cash prizes in just 60 seconds
- Meet potential business partners & investors individually
- Attend intensive trainings
*Application for EPiC 2021 is now closed.
