2 days to go!

Project submissions for #LegendsOfLightning are closing in less than 48 hours. It's time for your final pitch!

Project submissions close in 2 days (Nov 24th @ 12:00 UTC)!

On Thursday (Nov 24th) @ 12:00 UTC, project submissions will officially close and judges will begin their evaluation process - announcing a shortlist of 8 finalists for each track a few days later on Nov 28th. Here is what you'll need to do to successfully submit your project and maximise impact with the judges...

Enter your project

  • Enter your project: All projects entered into the tournament via the portal will be evaluated by our panel of judges for each track. If you haven't already, you can enter your project here. Make sure to do before midday on Thursday!

  • Add project + maker details: Judges will be reviewing the project pages as well as your maker profiles (to learn more about the people behind all these cool things being built). So make sure to add your name or nym, roles, and a glamour shot, etc.

Pitch it to the judges!

Pitch your project and maximise your impact with the judges. Make it easy for the judges to learn about your project by writing up one final story in the form of a "pitch". This should include details like:

  • What is your project? What problems is it looking to solve? (USP & PMF)

  • Who built it (team) and how? What specs, languages, and tools did you use?

  • What are the next steps on your project’s roadmap?

  • Quick links to your product, website, demo, #BuildInPublic stories, etc.

  • Include a short 5 minute video pitch of your project (this could be a demo, explanation, or even a recording of your pitch to investors). Make it simple and easy to understand.

Check out this pitch as a good example to follow.

Venture Capital & Crowd Funding 💸
