Idea Pitching is not just yapping on stage.
While there are a few pitching events, pitching does contribute significantly to other events like design and development. You can either develop and present your product concept, complete with a business plan and prototype, or work alongside your design and development teams to pitch their projects.
No matter how extraordinary your idea is, its worth is only defined by how well you sell it. A compelling pitch can transform your brilliant concepts from dreams to action. Pitching aims to convince. You could be convincing judges about an idea or a product. A good pitch isn't flawless, it just convinces you that the flaws aren't there.
The Winning Formula = Originality + Feasibility + Confident Pitching
Several small things will eventually set your pitch apart. Certainly, begin with brainstorming. Start by identifying common pain points and finding solutions beyond those that already exist. Once you’ve narrowed down your options, back them up by research.
When this is done and you are ready with your idea, consider its real-world potential, i.e. feasibility and implementation. Make sure to be clear with your idea to avoid mishaps during question rounds. This completes the idea portion of idea pitching.
For the actual pitching part, prepare a credible pitch deck. This pitch deck provides both visuals to the audience and an order to the speaker.
To master pitching, observe pitches online and, of course, practice.
