10 Start-ups have the opportunity to pitch their project for 10 minutes in total: 3 minutes pitching and a further 7 minutes for question & answer. If investors are convinced, then they may offer you the investment or an investment package subject to due diligence. You can sign initial agreement or contract in person at the event or progress the talks later.

After the main pitching Event (10 pitching) you can use the "30 seconds elevator pitch" to pitch your business to Dragoninvestors & audience investors, for consideration of investment; We expect there to be people in the audience who may also be able to help your business.

What businesses need to prepare for pitching?

1. Proof of Concept: proof they have something your targeted customers want. The best way to prove that is existing sales.

2. A valuation that stacks up.

For example: someone who says I need £50k and offering 10% values their company at £500k but if no sales are made and it is still in its infancy the company is not worth anywhere near £500k. That puts investors off straight away.

For normal example: "you have made £50k in sales and a profit of £20k, given the industry, basing it on a multiple of 6 x earnings so, the business is valued at £300k (6 x 50k) and you need £50k and you therefore offering a 17% stake in your business."

However, the decision on offering equity % and accepting any offer by any investors is a business decision to be considered after taking the necessary guidance from your professional advisers. If in doubt please seek legal advise before proceeding.
