Join the Mawji Centre and NAIT’s Enactus team as we host an event all about pitching. As a startup, every opportunity you get to showcase your brand to a targeted audience of potential investors, partners and customers is invaluable. For this session Craig Elias, Entrepreneur-in-Residence for Bow Valley College, will lead us through the in’s and out’s of a good pitch. We will also hear from Cole Rosentreter, CEO of Pegasus Imagery, who recently won the pitch competition at Draper University in the Silicone Valley. Cole will share what has worked for him and why.
