Not to be confused with other UOW Pitch programs for innovation, the PitchX is a “reverse pitching competition” where student teams have to develop a dodgy idea in the name of experience and fun.
Finalists have been given support and training over the past four weeks – however bizarre and funny they may be – and will pitch them to a panel of experts.
The free event will have a party atmosphere with a DJ, food and drinks and is open to the general public.
It kicks off at 6pm, Thursday October 18 – on the rooftop terrace of the iAccelerate building, Innovation Campus on Squires Way in North Wollongong.
Audience registration is through www.eventbrite.com.au
