Have a brilliant business idea or know students who do?
Join us for a free webinar introducing Pitch It, the competition challenging students in Years 10–13 to develop, refine and pitch a real business idea to an expert panel of industry judges.
Pitch It gives ambitious young people a practical introduction to entrepreneurship: from spotting an opportunity and shaping a proposition to communicating it with confidence and commercial clarity. Entry is free and open to students at secondary schools, online schools and those who are homeschooled.
In this session, we’ll explain exactly how the competition works, what judges will be looking for and how students can turn an early-stage idea into a compelling pitch.
We’ll be joined by:
- Anthony Rose, Founder and CEO of SeedLegals, the legal tech platform helping more than 50,000 startups become investment-ready.
- Martin Begley, Teacher of Economics and Business Studies at Highgrove School.
Together, Anthony and Martin will explore The Art of the Pitch, sharing practical, actionable advice on how to structure an idea, demonstrate its commercial potential and deliver a presentation that captures the attention of the judging panel.
Bring your questions, discover how to get involved and give your students the confidence to take their ideas seriously.
