PITCH is the startup competition at Web Summit, showcasing the world’s most promising early-stage startups in a live, onstage pitching battle.

The competition is open to all ALPHA & BETA startups at Web Summit that have received less than €5 million in funding to date.

Competition Format

The top 105 startups that apply will pitch in front of our distinguished judging panel and hundreds of attendees in the group rounds of PITCH, which will take place across our three PITCH stages. Following the group stages, 8 startups will advance to the semi-final on Centre Stage, where they will pitch against four fast-tracked startups in a bid for one of three PITCH finalist spots at Web Summit.

Those three finalists will battle it out on Centre Stage for a chance to be crowned PITCH champion at Web Summit 2022.
