How well do you sell yourself?

Pitching yourself or your business is a skill that requires constant refinement.

This Emergence session features:

An interactive workshop to develop your pitch skills and learn from industry experts. Discover the finer points of presenting your case, whether it be to land a new gig, attract an investment dollar for your start-up, or convince your boss of the merits of a new creative project. This workshop will help you pick apart your pitch, craft a case for your idea and nail the ask.
Panel discussion led by creative industry leaders to explore Pitchcraft in the current creative business environment.
