(Please use a clear, readable script and big letters so everyone can read it easily).
**How much time will you have for your pitch?**
You'll have 2-minute pitch-time, followed by 4-5 minutes of follow-up questions. We'll have up to ten (10) pitches in total.
**How will the priority for pitching order be determined for the startups?**
Those who join the [Discord](https://discord.gg/ywdysKPews) and submitted their decks + 2-min pitches will have a priority. Then a priority is determined by the order in which the startups are written on the whiteboard.
**How do you follow up on a pitch?**
To follow up on your pitch, please join our [Discord](https://discord.gg/ywdysKPews) and post a pitch deck (PDF, < 2MB) to "[founders-decks](https://discord.gg/f3xBaApu9v)" channel.

"Amazing event, it has the quality of an event that would be put on by a business school once or twice a year, and this one happens once a month. Each judge showed a lot of care into the advice they gave on people's pitches."

"Many thanks to Hacker Dojo for the opportunity to pitch my startup, aMUZE, at their pitching event! The experience was incredibly enlightening, and the feedback received was profoundly instrumental in honing my presentation skills and business direction. The judges were not only insightful but also constructively critical, asking pointed questions that prompted further refinement of our pitch. Thank you for this invaluable opportunity!" *-*
*Diamantis Argyris Co-founder aMUZE*

There’s even a space for rust developers, which makes me happy 😁 SVET invited me to come pitch my project and I received invaluable advice from amazing judges from a wide array of industry’s with critical feedback !!”

* *Dylan Kawalec, CTO and Solutions Architect of Invo Technologies Inc.*

"One of the most interesting pitch events I attended was at the Hacker Dojo meet and pitch. It was incredible to see the community come together to help everyone streamline their ideas and just listen to some of the great future innovators. Couldn't have been done without SVET. Thanks again!"
