Pitch Night is the flagship event for N-House. For the first time, we hosted a virtual pitch session on Zoom and Facebook Live! With more than 100 audience on zoom and over a thousand views on Facebook, virtual Pitch Night AY1920 Sem 2 garnered positive responses and witnessed many interactions between the audience too. We were honored to invite Mr. David Ding, Mr Felix Tang and Miss Ee Ling Lim to be the judges for our 8 teams up for the pitch.
For this Pitch Night, we have invited 8 teams to pitch their ideas. The winner of Pitch Night 2019 will get a fast track to receiving the $10,000 practicum grant as well as support from NUS Enterprise. Each team had 5 minutes of pitching to present their questions and 3 minutes of Q&A to answer all the judges’ questions.
The 8 teams pitched very interesting ideas of various topics, ranging from sustainability to mental health. Here is a short description of their pitch!
