In the era of startups, YUVA campaigns and make in India, Pitchathon has become a common word or so to say the trending word. This platform comes with a strict set of rules that allows an entrepreneur to present their business ideas through PPTs enactment, visual ai generated tools or any other creative way. The timelines for each are strictly adhered to, by the participants: for content delivery 5 minutes and question and answers 2 minutes. Which means that one has to walk the judges through their presentation in that tight timeline. One cannot overshoot even by few seconds which will result in interruptions and finally negative points. I have been part of such a platform many a times which has made me deliver my presentation in the breathless style like the most famous breathless song sung by Shankar Mahadevan.
So, all those planning to participate in such events need to:
1. Rehearse, rehearse and rehearse with the TIMER
2. Swift content delivery
3. Include testimonials or success stories
4. Highlight Unique Selling Point
