The Pitch Pit: Global Edition – Founder Pitch Practice [Best for Founders & Ecosystem Builders] [FREE]

Startup Grind HQ brings together the world’s most driven founders for The Pitch Pit: Global Edition, a virtual, high-energy pitch training and practice arena during Global Entrepreneurship Week 2025. This isn’t just another webinar — it’s a no-fluff, fully interactive global founder forum designed to help you craft a compelling pitch, connect with global mentors, and step confidently into the spotlight.

We start with a live pitch training masterclass led by Rajiv Nathan, Founder of Startup Hypeman and one of the world’s top storytelling experts. His framework transforms pitches into performances that land funding and attention. Whether you’re gearing up for an investor meeting, prepping for a demo day, or just turning your idea into words — this is where you learn how to own the mic.

Then we step into the Pitch Pit. Founders have 60 seconds to pitch and receive 60 seconds of actionable feedback from an international panel of Startup Grind Chapter Directors, investors, and mentors. The feedback session is moderated by Alexandra Renée Poelstra, Founder & CEO of All Maven, known for empowering mission-driven brands. No competition. No pressure. Just powerful practice.

But it doesn’t stop there—Guillermo Vizcaino, Global Community Director at Startup Grind, will launch the Startup Grind Global Pitch Battle 2026, a prestigious global competition spanning 100+ cities and culminating in a main stage pitch at SG Conference in Silicon Valley. Winners unlock access to top VCs, media exposure, and community-wide support.

Whether you’re pitch-ready or pitch-curious, this is your chance to:

• Sharpen your pitch in a high-trust, founder-first environment

• Learn from global experts and SG alumni

• Get visibility and feedback from a worldwide audience

• Join the kickoff for the largest grassroots pitch competition in the world

💡 Come for the pitch. Stay for the people. Leave with power.

And remember — this event is part of Global Entrepreneurship Month, co-hosted with the Global Entrepreneurship Network, featuring cross-chapter events, global keynotes, and 24-hour marathons spotlighting leaders like Guy Kawasaki and Maddy Martin.

🖥️ This is a virtual event open to founders, mentors, investors, and ecosystem builders worldwide.
