Creatives and Media Pitch Night | YAAD x Afribond

SEP30
19:00 · Europe / London

About this event

Our first Pitch Night is for creative and media founders who are less than 12 months into their journey. There's no polished five-year plan required, just something you're building and ready to say out loud (with a deck, ofc).
Checklist:
‘Creative’ is broad - if you think it’s creative, it probably is
It can be just an idea, it doesn’t have to be a business
If you are a business, you need to be less than 12 months old (exceptions can be made, tell us why via the form)
It can be a tech-based solution in creative or media
You don’t have to have pitched before - first-timers welcome
We're excited to announce Parminder Vir OBE, Tony Hyland MBE, Nanna S S. and Marcus Gibbs, CAIA as our panelists who will give real, useful feedback to our pitchers on the night.
In partnership with Afribond.
