Student association AFC Ghent and Gentrepreneur join forces for Pitch Your Future. During this pitching event, we offer the stage to young entrepreneurs with a clear goal: practice, grow and be seen.
Come and tank new inspiration, vote for your favourite pitcher and get to meet likeminded entrepreneurs during the networking reception afterwards.
Eight young pitchers take the stage to present their businesses in just 2 minutes. Based on their pitches, they receive valuable feedback from our entrepreneurial jury:
- Ruslan Podgaetskiy (former student entrepreneur, Davai Dumplings - Datcha)
- Johan Verrue (Ghent University, serial entrepreneur)
- Norah Benmeridja (former researcher entrepreneur, Carotein)
- Estelle De Ruyck (Director Insurance Office De Ruyck NV bij KBC Bank & Insurance)
