We have turned the tables - on 29.03.2022 the Reverse Pitch took place for the first time. Together with the Waterkant Festival, The Bay Areas e.V. organized the new event format in the coworking space in Legienstraße.

The special thing about this new format is the change of perspective during the pitch: managers from SMEs pitch their specific challenge to selected start-ups. The aim is to find the right partner for solving the problem and perhaps even for future collaboration.

In preparation, the participating companies were able to take part in advanced level pitch coaching in order to present their business challenge in the best possible way. The cases presented were very interesting and, if desired, the companies were then advised on how to build a partnership with the selected startup. The successful reverse pitch ended with snacks, drinks and relaxed networking.

We would like to thank you for the many great discussions and for your commitment and courage to participate in this new format as a "first mover". We are already looking forward to further reverse pitches and are excited to see how the format develops.
