For detailed info visit: www.pitchclinic.net

In the spirit of Global Entrepreneurship Week, we are hosting a Pitch Clinic sponsored by the Hunter Hub for Entrepreneurial Thinking's GEW Engagement Fund supported by Schulich School of Engineering, Faculty of Science, and Skunkworks Innovation Cooperative and facilitated by Tyler Massie of Market Grade to end the week with a bang!

Want to learn what makes a good business pitch and how to structure it? Learn the basics, build your pitch, meet with our mentors and practice your skills.

As an added bonus, Kaben will be on site to make specialty coffees in addition to regular refreshments.

Finalists will be selected by mentors to compete in a "Pitch Off" for up to $10,000 of in-kind prizes including consultations from Bennett Jones, Market Grade, Deloitte, Royal Bank of Canada, & Skunkworks and more.

Global Entrepreneurship Week is the world’s largest celebration of the innovators and job creators who launch startups that bring ideas to life, drive economic growth and expand human welfare. During one week each November, GEW inspires people everywhere through local, national and global activities designed to help them take the next step in their entrepreneurial journey. These activities, from large-scale competitions and events to intimate networking gatherings, connect participants to potential collaborators, mentors and even investors—introducing them to new possibilities and exciting opportunities.
