About this Event

Pitch Principles Workshop

Pitch Principles is an interactive, experiential workshop designed to help students transform the way they present their ideas. Too often, pitches become rehearsed scripts delivered to slides instead of compelling stories delivered to people. In this session, students will learn how to communicate with confidence, clarity, and authentic presence.

Led by Jon VerLee, serial entrepreneur and founder of Startup Garage, this workshop focuses on practical techniques to improve delivery, storytelling, body language, and audience connection. Through live practice and real-time feedback, students will be challenged to step outside their comfort zones and develop pitching skills that resonate with investors, judges, and peers alike.

Whether preparing for competitions, classrooms, or future ventures, this session equips students to pitch like professionals, not presenters.

We hope to have you join us!
