Entrepreneurs invited to Pitch and Polish

The ENGEN Pitch & Polish initiative invites entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs to participate in a full day workshop.

ENGEN Pitch & Polish, in partnership with Engen Petroleum Ltd, Nedbank, Raizcorp and Caxton Local Media, will host a free workshop on Saturday, 8 September at Olive Convention Centre, Durban.

The event is a national entrepreneurial workshop and competition programme that has so far helped over 10 000 entrepreneurs improve the way they pitch their businesses to potential investors.

Participants take part in a free day-long competition-based workshop and on the day contestants “pitch” their business idea to the audience. The session is facilitated by Justin Cohen, best-selling author, international speaker and TV talk-show host. Justin will give tips and guidance, helped by the audience, to “polish” the pitch until the contestants have a professional and in-depth presentation and the audience is primed to role-play as bankers and investors and interact throughout the day with valuable feedback. The event culminates in the contestants giving their final three-minute pitch.
