You have about two weeks to apply for the pitch-offs in Austin and Seattle, going down June 14 and June 16, respectively.
Ten companies will have exactly 60 seconds each to pitch their wares to a panel of expert judges, including TC editors and local VCs.
After all the presentations, the judges will determine our winners.
First place will receive a table in Startup Alley at TechCrunch Disrupt SF in September. Second place gets two tickets to the show and the Audience Choice winner will get one ticket to the conference.
Apply to the pitch-offs here. Applications close June 3.
But even if you don’t want to pitch, we still want to see your beautiful face.
There will be ample time for networking and throwing back a few cold drinks before and after the pitch-off.
