Start with your startup name and a short one-liner. Focus on showing your product, service, or technology in action, not just talking. End with a brief outro to wrap it up. Keep the flow clear, visual, and easy to follow.
A clear and well-structured idea that demonstrates strong understanding of the problem, grounded in relevant knowledge, and clearly differentiated from existing solutions.
The potential to create real value for users and markets, with scalability and the ability to address meaningful societal or environmental challenges.
A capable team with the skills or a clear plan to develop them, supported by a realistic and feasible path to build, launch, and grow the solution.
Finalists are evaluated on the clarity and persuasiveness of their live pitch, including a 2-minute presentation followed by a 3-minute Q&A with the jury.
