A pitch competition that trades like a stock market. $1M to play, $10K in founder prize value on the line.
Here’s how it works. Founders pitch. The room trades them like stocks. Every seat gets a $1M virtual portfolio to buy, sell, and watch market caps swing in real time through the PitchTank app. Highest market cap wins the founder prize. Sharpest trader wins the audience prize. The pitch is the stock market.
PitchTank 2.0 is a full sensory upgrade. New venue, rebuilt trading engine, same core mechanic, completely reimagined night. Expect chaos. Market caps swinging on the big screen. Leaderboards flipping in the final minute. Thai and Persian spreads, refreshments flowing, a photo zone for the moment your portfolio hits the top.
The Champion walks with a $10K founder prize stack: $1,800 cash, AI credits, and a founder value package of in.kind perks, plus a professionally shot pitch video and an AI generated validation report breaking down audience sentiment and live investor signal on every moment of their pitch. The sharpest trader in the audience walks with $300 cash and a custom PitchTank skateboard.
Tickets: $25 audience, $100 founder (application required). Bring a smartphone with the PitchTank app. Doors open 30 minutes before the first pitch. Vegetarian options available, venue wheelchair accessible, email [email protected] for accessibility needs.
PitchTank 1.0 sold out. The Champion raised $1M in their next round. 2.0 is louder, sharper, better looking. The market opens soon.
