This can be donated on the night by putting the money into the bucket on the door.

ELEVATOR PITCHES

We’ve been having a bit of a ponder of late as to how we can help our fab members reach their dreams. We’d like to introduce something to help boost everyone’s networking efforts with that ‘something’ being elevator pitches.

For anyone that doesn’t know, an elevator pitch is a succinct and persuasive pitch that should be no more than 30 seconds and deems to get people interested or asking questions.

So, if you’re willing, prepare a 30 second elevator pitch we’ll be welcoming around 10 brave people on stage to deliver theirs. This might consist of explaining your business, idea, reason you’re at the event or what you’re looking for, anything is welcome!
