Cyber Pitch

The inaugural Cyber Pitch competition premieres on October 22nd as part of the Houston Cyber Summit 2020 virtual conference. Cyber Pitch is the Hatch Pitch competition for startups with digital solutions to cybersecurity, privacy, and safety. “We are excited to partner with the Houston Cyber Summit, a 3-day gathering of executives and experts in the business of cybersecurity providing strategies, tools, and expert insights to govern and best practices to protect against cyber-attack. Hatch Pitch brings a new element of innovation to the event with the Cyber Pitch competition,” said Greg Wright, respected tech innovator and founder of Hatch Pitch.

Startups will present their pitches live to a panel of judges who will ask questions and provide feedback. Then our scoring judges (on and off camera) will select the winners. The whole virtual audience also gets to weigh in with ranking the startups to select the crowd favorite.

After the pitches everyone can participate in a virtual happy hour during which the Cyber Pitch winners will be announced.

Join our electric MC, Kate Baucherel (entrepreneur, educator, author) and learn more about our eclectic judging panel including Roger Casals (founded 5 cyber startups), Rahul Sood (founded unikrn and Microsoft Ventures), Sue Jain (tech executive and startup advisor), and many more.
