Epic Events Virtual Format (Updated)
- Each company will deliver a 1-minute elevator to the Investor Panelists. There will be up to two questions from the panel.
- After each company’s elevator pitch the panel will vote on a scale of 1-5 as to how much they like the company.
- The top 5 vote getters will get to do a 4-min. presentation followed by 4 min. of Q&A followed by 4 min. of non-rebuttal feedback. The panelists will vote again on the company based on their 4-minute presentation.
- Winners will be announced following the pitches. Companies that do well often get meetings with the investors that result in beginning the process for Angel investment.
