UB Challenges: IdeaJam
Got a startup idea? Come and pitch it. Don’t have one? No problem, come hear the pitches, join a team, meet like-minded people, get inspired and maybe win a prize.
Details:
2 minutes pitch
2 minutes questions
• If you have a team, only one team member can do the pitch, but any of them can answer any question
• If you don’t have a team, come and pitch. During the networking sessions, you can meet potential future team members with which you can enroll in Innovation Labs competition.
• If you don’t have an idea, but want to join anyway, come at the event and meet potential team members during networking event.
It is NOT required to have a team, you can meet potential team members here.
It is NOT required to have a prototype or anything – the idea alone is enough.
No specific domain is required. ANY project with a tech background is welcomed, as long as it can be turned into a business idea.
Any student of any Faculty is welcomed – it doesn’t have to be a technical one. Usually, the best teams have non-technical members as well.
