The second part of the day will feature the next edition of IITNT’s popular and exciting Pitch Perfect event. Several start up companies have been selected by the IIT Entrepreneur Network (IITEAN) to pitch their business plans in a “Shark Tank” like session. These companies are then matched with mentors and sometimes even find potential investors. There is also an audience-choice award for the one presentation with the best business model.
