Pitching Den Groningen #1
Practice your pitching for high stakes outcomes in a low stakes environment
Pitching Den Groningen is a new pitch practice night for entrepreneurs, student founders, and early-stage startup teams in Groningen.
No prizes. No jury theatre. No polished demo day energy.
Just real founders, real stories, honest feedback, and a room full of people who want to help you get better before you pitch in front of customers, partners, or investors.
What happens?
Selected founders get:
Up to 5 minutes to pitch on stage in front of a live audience
direct feedback from experienced founders, operators, and ecosystem players
questions on the story, deck, business, target audience, and next steps
opportunity to sharpen the pitch before an investor meeting, competition, customer call, grant interview, or demo day
Not sure if you’re ready to come on stage? Join the audience to watch, learn, meet other founders, and see how startup pitches actually improve.
Who is this for?
student founders
early-stage startup teams
founders preparing for a pitch soon
founders who want to pitch at a future edition
experienced entrepreneurs and operators who want to help
people supporting the Groningen startup scene
Pitching Den Groningen #1 is run together with BrainBlurb.
