The Pitch Event Toolkit

Designed for disruptors, innovators, and entrepreneurs, our toolkit is the perfect resource for hosting a successful live pitch event.

Let our PLUM team 'catalyze' a comprehensive guide to equip you with the knowledge and tools necessary to create an engaging and impactful event.

Why Host a Pitch Event?

Hosting a pitch event is a great leading-edge way to publicly solicit innovative ideas and

connect small businesses, start-ups and organizations with leaders and resources in a

community and region.

These events are a catalyst that connect government, start-up funders, talent and others and allows them to present their ideas in a competitive format that provides visibility to both the pitchers and the sponsoring organizations.

What's the Overall Goal?

Ideas are solicited through the creation of an event, pitched to a panel of judges, and awarded a prize. This guide is intended to help guide the process so that the event is

successful for both the promoters and the participants.
