Infoshare Talent Arena Pitch Challenge by STARTER – enter the competition

Register your team, present your project, take the Infoshare stage, and win prizes — with a prize pool of PLN 6,000!

Infoshare Talent Arena Pitch Challenge by STARTER. is a competition aimed at teams, high school and university students from Pomerania who are developing technology projects.

Are you working with a team on a project using new technology?
Are you creating a solution that addresses a real problem?

The themes of the projects and the degree of technology use may vary:

• We are interested in what problems young teams identify — whether social, environmental, business, or technological — and how they try to solve them using new technologies.
• The degree of technology use and the type of technology are entirely up to you.
• Technology may be only a small part of the solution — it can involve coding, robotics, or something completely different, such as a ready-made sensor creatively used, for example, in rain gardens.
• We would like the teams to have prototypes — understood broadly. It does not have to be a working robot or an application. This may be a presentation with app screens explaining how the solution is intended to work, or a short illustrative video — here, too, we leave the format up to you.

What we offer:

• free tickets to the Infoshare conference (Visitor Passes)
• pitching workshops, i.e. workshops on how to present your project
• contact with experts and the business community, including potential investors and business angels
• the opportunity to win prizes, with a total prize pool of PLN 6,000
• feedback from business and technology experts
