[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

PitchTalk facilitates a more direct connection between investors, both retail and Venture Capital while getting rid of the veil that is present in traditional fundraising!

Our mission is to provide projects with a place to pitch their ideas to investors and strategic partners who are seeking strong synergies in their portfolios. 

We believe that PitchTalk can empower the Web3 space and help entrepreneurs to build a strong products that would increase the adoption of crypto and blockchain.

PitchTalk engages all the players that are there on the market:

• projects
• VCs
• exchanges
• ecosystems

Any user can easily check the growth of the platform by seeing the constantly increasing number of projects that are landed on PitchTalk as well as number of DemoDays and Hackathons that were and will be hosted on out platform. Moreover, the more and more ecosystems see value in that, so they bring their community on it.

[IMPACT] How does your proposed solution address the challenge and what benefits will this bring to the Cardano ecosystem?

As soon as we integrate Cardano blockchain on PitchTalk we can easily onboard all projects from the Cardano ecosystem as well as involve Cardano ecosystem into the expanding Web3.

Being fully onchain any VC or retail investor can fund Cardano-based project right on our platform.

We truly believe that this integration would allow us to improve the number of success cases for projects that are built on Cardano blockchain.

[IMPACT] How do you intend to measure the success of your project?

The success can be measured by the number of projects and VCs that are onboarded on the PitchTalk platform. Means that Cardano ecosystem will get new VCs and projects that would be interested in building on Cardano blockchain and investing in Cardano ecosystem.

[IMPACT] Please describe your plans to share the outputs and results of your project?

We are looking to integrate Cardano blockchain within a month after the grant is received.

Once this is done, we want to start with a Hackathon that will be devoted to Cardano's event that will take place on November 2023.

This is the entry point for PitchTalk to spread a word about Cardano ecosystem with multiple cooperations and synergies that will take place further.

We are really close to most ecosystems out there. So, once integration is done, we will proceed with the marketing campaign to share great news with the community.

[CAPABILITY/ FEASIBILITY] What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability?

Pitchtalk is a project that was created by Jumbo. Moreover, PitchTalk has a separate and dedicated team that works full time on its development.

We have a tight cooperation with leading VCs and ecosystems, so our only interest is to make Web3 world more prosperous and bring more adoption to it.
