Hi Sushene - please answer the 3 questions above - we have closed submissions from pitching entrepreneurs, but we are very much open to people with specific expertise to be a part of our advisory boards. Hope that helps!

Hi Micheal Ann - Great point and we plan to ask everyone at the beginning of the evening to introduce themselves and provide a little about themselves. Please do use this time as your elevator pitch as it will introduce you to the group and allow for great networking possibilities!

SusheneI was impressed with the women who attended this event. It was very refreshing to be around other independent, intelligent, successful women. I will be contacting many of the women I met at Perfecting Your Pitch for either business or friendship. I will be definitely attending future events.

Hermann MazardThis was a great forum for introducing young entrepreneurs to the pitching process. A few of the presenters delivered business concepts and not commercializat
ion plans. For many, this may have been their first time soliciting opinions from an external source. In this case, it makes sense for panelists to be more encouraging than critical. Even IBM is a work in progress... the goal of the group should be to attract and encourage the infant voices of innovation instead of stifling it.

How is it determined who is the pitcher and who is on the advisory board? Will everyone participate as one or the other?
