Pitches must be less than 7 minutes in length
All pitches must be pre-recorded and hosted on YouTube as unlisted videos.
Pitches must follow the format of
Company team Intro
Problem being solved

Ask
The “ask” can be for

invitation to new end users
advertise your availability for company acquisition
In other words, the pitch must be actionable.
All pitches that are accepted will be categorized and placed within the 3D event space according to the "ask"
If your pitch is included in the event, you will have the opportunity to host a live, virtual discussion session on the day of the event in order to meet prospective investors, clients, and connections.
Pitches will be evaluated in order to align with Department of Defense innovation initiatives, including DIU, AFC, NavalX, AFWERX, ONR, SOFWERX, and others.
We are still using this form for gathering information from potential participants. Feel free to share this with your network as a way to make sure people stay in the loop as the event evolves.
If you know of potential sponsors, you can send them this pdf with info. We have some great companies getting involved already.
The virtual event will have a lot of pre-recorded content from startups, sponsors, investors, etc. We will also have a lot of live networking rooms, chats, and collaborative documents for different ways to connect.
