On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Those with funding need to know about you and why they should place their investment in you and your venture. This may be a pitch for research funds, a pitch in an enterprise competition or a presentation asking for an R & D budget. It is a skill that is much needed for the next career step.
This interactive course will use your research as a starting point but feel free to come with a business venture idea too.
This course will cover: * The structure and elements of a pitch * What different funders are looking for in a pitch * Opening and closing your pitch * Team pitching * The use of props * Making your message clear
Objectives: by the end of this session participants will have: * Practised a variety of pitch elements * Thought about the audience and meeting their needs * Explored the structure and elements of a pitch * Received feedback
