Startups submit an application with a self-recorded video giving their company elevator pitch. Our team will review all applications and select a shortlist of successful candidates. Video scripts that exceed 40 words will not be considered – hence the name.
You’ve only got 40 words, so choose them carefully. Cut all the filler and focus on the question you’re addressing. Remember, this video isn’t just going out to investors – it’s for everyone at Web Summit. Ensure you use language that all attendees will understand, and you’re on the right track.
Selected videos will be played on screens at our stages and all across the venue, increasing your exposure and allowing you to share your pitch with all attendees.
