What is an Elevator Pitch?
An elevator pitch is a verbal summary of your idea, product or business model. You pitch to someone you are trying to influence during the time span of an elevator ride from 30 seconds to two minutes. Ideally, your audience should be so compelled by your pitch that they request an extended meeting.
How can I participate?
