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.
