**About the Workshop**
This session will prepare participants to deliver high-impact pitches, led by National University faculty and hosted by CBEM and CAVO. Topics include:

* How to structure a clear and compelling pitch
* Common mistakes and how to avoid them
* How to engage your audience in under 5 minutes
* Individual Q&A and personal feedback

Perfect for anyone refining their ideas before the competition—or anyone wanting to sharpen their pitching skills!

* Time limits will be strictly enforced.
* Participants in the 5-minute pitch may use electronic aids; please check equipment during check-in.
* Participants in the 3-minute pitch may bring prototypes but may not use slides or electronic presentations.
* Respectful, professional behavior is required throughout the event.

**Each participant must submit their 3-minute or 5-minute concept via email to rbriggs3@nu.edu for approval and to secure a spot on the presentation list. Submissions must be received on or before May 26th.**
