MUSIC techpitch 4.5
In partnership with EMI Music
27th March 2012
We are delighted to announce the second MUSIC techpitch 4.5 event, an evening pitch event in partnership with EMI Music, as part of the successful techpitch 4.5 series of events.
The purpose of MUSIC techpitch 4.5 is to showcase some of the latest music-tech startups in Europe, including some which have taken part in the UKTI pitch-training workshop, and to provide them with a platform to build awareness, gain investment and users in an environment where they can present to and network with industry experts and potential partners.
The next MUSIC techpitch 4.5 will take place on 27th March 2012 starting at 18.30, at EMI's headquarters in Kensington.
The evening will feature a keynote presentation, and will be chaired by Danvers Baillieu, co-founder of Bootlaw and senior associate with law firm Pinsent Masons.
Eight music-tech startups will present their business ideas and revenue models during a three minute pitch followed by a five minute Q&A by a panel of judges.
The panel of judges will discuss the viability of each business idea and give constructive feedback on both the revenue model and the pitch. A winner will be selected both by the judges and by an audience vote.
