CEI PITCH MASTERS
Build the confidence, clarity, and competence to deliver compelling business pitches
About This Programme
CEI Pitch Masters is a six month structured programme designed to equip students with the confidence, clarity, and competence to deliver compelling business pitches. The programme supports students who have business ideas or existing ventures by strengthening their pitching and presentation skills, enabling them to communicate their value propositions effectively to judges, funders, and industry stakeholders.
What Participants Learn
Through guided training, practical exercises, and feedback-driven refinement, participants learn and practice how to clearly articulate their problem statement, solution, business model, impact, and market opportunity. The programme places strong emphasis on public speaking, storytelling, slide design, delivery techniques, and responding to questions under pressure.
Competition Preparation
CEI Pitch Masters prepares students to confidently participate in the growing number of entrepreneurship and innovation pitch competitions running every year within the higher education ecosystem, including the EDHE Innovation Challenge, MTN Digital Innovation Challenge, Ford C3 Sustainable Communities Competition, EDHE Waste Innovation Challenge, EDHE Intervarsity Competition, Hult Prize, and other similar platforms.
The pitch preparation programme also aims to:
- Prepare students to compete and win (not just “participate”)
- Build real entrepreneurial + professional skills
- Be adaptable to different competition formats
Applications
Applications are open at the start of every academic year, so keep an eye out.
