Pitching Contest • Future Stage

Pitching Contest - new emerging talents

Tuesday, 9 May, you can watch the startup exhibitors pitch their business idea and company in front of a highly qualified panel of judges. The contest takes place at Future Stage and no registration are required to experience the contest.

In the competition, all startups will be grouped into two preliminary heats, in which each startup will have three minutes to pitch his/her business idea to the final. The top three startups from each of the two heats will advance to Thursday's final.

In the final, the six best startups will compete for the grand prize of DKK 50,000 for their company and a gift card for a Danish patent at Larsen & Birkeholm (The gift card has a value of DKK 35,000-40,000 and cannot be exchanged for cash)

In other words, everything is at stake, but only one startup will be standing at the top of the podium when the gold confetti cannons are fired and the champagne is popped.
