There are several exciting events coming up in the next few weeks please mark them on your calendars. The Cluster will be attending HINZ later this week and we look forward to seeing you there. Look out for our Elevator Pitch Session.
HINZ 2008 Elevator Pitch Session
This year, we will be running our very popular Elevator Pitch Session as part of the Welcome Function on Wednesday 15th of October at The Skyline Redwoods Marquee. This year Elevator Pitches will be One Minute long.
Pitches will be judged on:
- The Hook: Does it attract your attention?
- The Market: Are the target customer groups identified?
- The Problem Solved: Does it describe the problem solved?
- The Results: Does it mention the results achieved?
- The Duration: Not to exceed the 1 minute duration
The Elevator pitches are supposed to be fun, informative and memorable. The drinks and light supper are generously sponsored by Gen-i.
Further information on this fun and informative event can be found on the Cluster website here.
