Not only do startup competitions allow you to rub shoulders with some of the most important people in your respective industry, you’ll also have a chance to meet, network, and learn from your peers. You’ll glean information about how to pitch, areas in need of improvement, and when you need to pull the trigger on big decisions. Even if you don’t win, which is a very real possibility, the people you meet, knowledge you gain, and experiences you enjoy are more valuable than any prize that might come your way. However, since you’re entering a startup competition to win, when you are ready to show off your product remember that your team, your strategy, and perhaps most importantly, your tech need to be on point and explain the problems you are trying to solve for the judges. At Tech.Co, we understand the value of startup competitions, which is why we hold one of our own every single year at our annual conference Innovate Celebrate. We have made it our goal to be as inclusive and diverse as possible, bringing in companies from around the world founded by people that represent a wide array of cultures. And, as a speaker, mentor, and judge of the competition, Foil couldn’t agree more.
