Pitch Competition by iMasons: You Be the Investor
Step into the investor’s seat as four startups pitch solutions for the future of digital infrastructure. Each founder gets two minutes — without slides — to make the case, followed by eight minutes of live audience Q&A. After all four pitches, use a virtual investment budget to back the companies you believe should scale. The session ends with a live leaderboard revealing how the room invested and which startup earned the greatest backing.
