Do I need to be investor ready

If pitching, YES, and at commercialise and/or scale up. This will include having a full professional financial forecast, including any pipeline of opportunities and sales. An investment readiness webinar will be delivered before the event. Participation recommended.

I've received Innovation funding before, can I still attend

Yes, it is important to provide any historical insights if asked; however, investors will be looking at your company from today's viewpoint and assessing if your company would meet their investment criteria.

Can I attend and not pitch?

Yes, half the tickets made available will be offered to start-up companies that want to learn from peers, knowledge transfer, and best practices as part of this event. Providing start-ups with the tools and understanding of what their investment journey might look like.

Do I have to present using PowerPoint/visuals

No, you can choose how you pitch, stand-up talk, showcase videos, or presentation. We recommend a mix and will share 'what great looks like' during our investor readiness webinar, but ultimately, how you present is 100% down to you, with your personality shining.
