Quick Pitch Night with StarterStudio

Orlando Innovation LeagueMeetup

What is Quick Pitch Night?

Quick Pitch Night is a fast-paced, high-energy startup showcase and community pitch jam, brought to by the Orlando Innovation League. Whether you’re a founder, future founder, or just here for the fun, this is your chance to see what Orlando’s startup scene is all about.

How the night works

Part 1: Featured Startups Two Orlando startups take the stage. Each gets 5 minutes to pitch, followed by 10 minutes of live Q&A. 🎤 Live feedback from startup veterans, investors, and mentors 🎯 A mini masterclass in what makes a strong early-stage pitch

Part 2: Rapid-Fire Pitch Jam 🔥 Then… it’s your turn! After the featured startups, we open the floor and anyone can jump in head up to the mic and pitch something. ⏱️ You get 60 seconds to pitch anything: a serious startup idea, a funny fake product, or something in between. ⭐ Our judges will rate every pitch and call out the Top 3 "Funniest" and Top 3 "Best" pitches of the night. 🏆 Prizes include light-up cups, t-shirts, and even free tickets to Startup Weekend Orlando (Nov 13-15).

This is your chance to share an idea, get a laugh, win something cool, or just cheer others on.

🎯 Why Attend?

  • See what kind of feedback they receive in real time
  • Network with Orlando’s startup community
