BIG Founders Huddle on Pitch to Win – Customers, Partners & Investors - 12 Oct 2026
A great pitch isn’t just about having a good deck — it’s about knowing your audience, communicating what matters to them, and giving them a reason to say yes.
Want to see what a professional pitch actually looks like — and get the chance to have your own pitch critiqued live?
Join us for our next BIG Founders Huddle: Pitch to Win – Customers, Partners & Investors. Eric Solberg, Founder & CEO of EXS Capital, will run a highly practical pitching session:
🔥 Watch a Professional Pitch
Eric will deliver a 10-minute professional pitch of Pirate.com, a music studio business that has raised US$20 million, followed by a group critique of what worked, why it worked, and how you can apply the techniques to your own pitch.
🚀 Then, It’s Your Turn
We’ll select 4–5 startups to deliver a 5-minute pitch during the session. Each team will receive 5–10 minutes of direct feedback and group evaluation to sharpen their pitch.
Want to be one of the pitching teams?
👉 Send us your 5-minute pitch deck by this Sunday. We’ll review the submissions and inform the selected teams before the session.
Even if you’re not pitching, this is a great opportunity to learn by watching real pitches being broken down and improved in real time.
