When is the OWL Startup Pitch suitable for our team?

Do you know that your start-up will need funding in the next 6 to 9 months? Do you and your team have your first customers or a first prototype? Then the Start-up Pitch is the right place for you!

When exactly does the OWL Start-up Pitch take place?

The ninth OWL Start-up Pitch will take place in the afternoon of February 15 as part of the moonshots & moneten Start-up Summit. The exact time is still to be determined.

Does our company have to be based in Ostwestfalen-Lippe?

You don't necessarily have to be based in OWL with your team. However, a connection to our region would be a prerequisite for participation, for example if you studied here at a university in the region or if East Westphalia-Lippe is your home.
