Reverse Pitching = Exchange of Ideas!
Are you looking for fresh ideas for your innovative project or do you want to get involved in shaping groundbreaking solutions yourself? Then enter a world where business and research are intertwined!
Reverse pitching gives companies, researchers, and students the opportunity to work together on innovations that have the potential to change the world. But first they must overcome the challenges of the commercial market. And that's where our task will lie.
- Researchers, students, companies, and mentors in one place
- Working on innovative challenges
- Opportunity to establish long-term collaborations
What is the role of the participants?
Scientists/researchers
SELL: The role of scientific experts is to "sell" their research to students and highlight the part where they would appreciate their helping hand.
Students
BUY: The role of students is clear - to "buy" the challenge of a company or researcher, get excited about it and get to work.
Companies
SELL: Representatives of companies also get the chance to "sell" their challenge to students and encourage them to cooperate.
Business experts
NAVIGATE: Experts will take on the role of navigators to determine the right direction for collaboration and offer useful advice from the market environment.

What's in store for you?
Presentation of innovations
Researchers and companies will briefly present their projects related to current challenges in technology, environment, health, and other industries.
Formation of ideas and teamwork
After the presentations, students will choose a specific challenge and sit together around one table to discuss how to turn the project into a viable commercial solution.
Mentoring and support
The discussing students and the company or researcher will be joined by an experienced mentor who will advise them and help them to keep their feet on the ground to ensure their ideas are marketable.
This is just the beginning
But it doesn't end with reverse pitching. Afterwards, students will also attend a joint three-day BOOTCAMP where they will work intensively on their solution throughout the weekend.
Implemented as part of the Smart Accelerator MSK project
