Pitch Slam 2025

Ever wished you were a Dragon on Dragon's Den? Do you think you can spot a billion-dollar idea? Now's your chance.

6 of Taranaki's most enterprising startup founders will pitch their concept, hoping to win the audience – that includes you! – vote to scoop the prize pool.

It's free to attend and dinner's included, but you must bring $20 cash to put into the pool. All proceeds go to the winner!

Thanks to Venture Taranaki, New Plymouth District Council, Manifold Coworking Space and Ara Ake for their support.
