WHAT: 

First-ever Founders Friday PitchFest
A startup pitching competition powered by TechTalks.ph

Open to all *early stage tech startups 

*Must have MVP (minimum viable product), a working product not just an idea. One member of the founding team must be a subject matter expert. For example, if the app is for teachers then one of the team members must have experience in the teaching field. 

Submit your online application now. Deadline of submission is on June 25, 2107.

WHY:

It's been said that pitching does not guarantee that a startup will get funded. That may be true. But pitching in a public venue will get you publicity, support, and feedback from the community. 

Get noticed by potential partners, supporters and customers. If you do it right, you may get noticed by someone who may recommend you to THE ONE. Having a good product to begin with and a solid startup team will increase your chances of success. 

Building a relationship with the right mentor or investor who understands your niche is another way to boost your chances. The more you pitch, the more you will ensure that your product meets stringent public expectations. Know what makes your startup rise above the noise, speak the right language to your target audience, and good luck!
