Your pitch deck (attached to your application as a pdf-file) should not exceed 10-13 pages/slides and should contain all information as concise as possible. Please do not add too much text – pictures often say more than a thousand words. An appealing pitch deck is simple, minimalist and uses many visual items. The pitch deck can be delivered in either German or English (as well as the live presentation itself).
