2024 Pitch Night

Pitch Night introduces investment ready businesses to prospective investors and helps builds an active local investor community in Rotorua.

The Pitches:
Businesses will have 15 minutes to share crucial information about their business, what funds they need and why interested parties should invest. Businesses can be asking for equity investment, lending or a combination of both.

A maximum of 6 businesses can pitch. Applications close 22nd March or until all six businesses have been accepted to pitch.

Each pitch will be followed by question time. There will be an Expert Panel to provide their thoughts on the pitch and ask any questions. If time allows, audience members can also ask questions.

The Investors:
Our Investor audience are people in the local community and wider central north island region who are interested and able to support up and coming businesses.

Pitch night acts as an introduction. Firestation can help organise individual pitch businesses to meet with investors/lenders before or after the event as required.
Audience attendance is by invitation only and is limited to genuine individual and corporate investors, pitch team supporters and event partner sponsors and members.
People wanting to attend must register to attend to receive event venue details.

Pitch Night is a relaxed environment with opportunity for investors and pitchers to mingle and network during the event.
Nibbles are provided and a cash bar is available for drinks.

The event usually kicks off around 5.30pm in Rotorua, and is finished by 8.30pm.
