Q&A
How can you sign up for pitching your startup?
Either (1st in line) you join the Discord & submit a deck + 2-min pitch or (2nd in line) you write your name, project, & email on a whiteboard when you show up.
(Please use a clear, readable script & big letters so everyone can read it easily).
How much time will you have for your pitch?
You'll have 2-minute pitch-time, followed by 4-5 minutes of follow-up questions. We'll have up to ten (10) pitches in total.
How will the priority for pitching order be determined for the startups?
Those who join the Discord & submitted their decks + 2-min pitches will have a priority. Then a priority is determined by the order in which the startups are written on the whiteboard.
How do you follow up on a pitch?
To follow up on your pitch, please join our Discord & post a pitch deck (PDF, < 2MB) to "founders-decks" channel. Also, to increase your chances to be noticed by investors, make a very simple traction form (f.e.: "date", "number of users", "% increase", "other key events") & post it on "founders-traction" channel regularly.
If in doubt, send your questions to SVET

"Amazing event, it has the quality of an event that would be put on by a business school once or twice a year, & this one happens once a month. Each judge showed a lot of care into the advice they gave on people's pitches."
*-Mark J. of Bravestapes.love*
"Many thanks to Hacker Dojo for the opportunity to pitch my startup, aMUZE, at their pitching event! The experience was incredibly enlightening, & the feedback received was profoundly instrumental in honing my presentation skills & business direction. The judges were not only insightful but also constructively critical, asking pointed questions that prompted further refinement of our pitch. Thank you for this invaluable opportunity!" -
Diamantis Argyris Co-founder aMUZE
The hacker Dojo is a very inclusive & inviting space for developers looking to explore their ideas in a safe space with very strong minds. There's even a space for rust developers, which makes me happy SVET invited me to come pitch my project & I received invaluable advice from amazing judges from a wide array of industry's with critical feedback !!
Dylan Kawalec, CTO & Solutions Architect of Invo Technologies
"One of the most interesting pitch events I attended was at the Hacker Dojo meet & pitch. It was incredible to see the community come together to help everyone streamline their ideas & just listen to some of the great future innovators. Couldn't have been done without SVET. Thanks again!"
