Do you have a problem you’re passionate about solving? Pitch for a chance to win £200 towards the next step for your idea!

Do you have a problem you’re passionate about solving? And the inkling of an idea of how to solve it?

Come along to our Open Pitch Night on Tuesday 29th October for your chance to pitch for £200 funding towards your next step to test your idea – whether that’s market research, building a prototype, buying equipment for testing, incentives for customer research, marketing etc.

Just turn up on the night and deliver a 90-second pitch in front of our judges and audience. It’s fun and low-stakes, so no prep or slides required. Everyone who pitches will receive a 1:1 mentoring session to support their idea going forwards, and 10x £200 prizes are available!

And if you don’t have an idea but want to watch some compelling pitches, then come along to support!

Food and drinks will be available, alongside a chance to network with other like-minded people if you’re looking for a team to work on your idea, or want to join a team.

Email ei@kcl.ac.uk with any questions.

**Pitch slots are open to all King's students, staff and alumni. Your idea cannot be revenue-generating and you cannot have won money from the Entrepreneurship Institute previously towards the same idea. Teams can have a max of x2 people pitching.
