SUMMARY:Bloom Pitch Night (2.0)
DESCRIPTION:Bloom is bringing you Pitch Night (2.0) — a fun\, low-pressure night where you can get up and share pretty much anything. Pitch your startup. Pitch your side hustle. Pitch your friend. Practice your public speaking. Test out a random concept. Overshare a little. We’re not here to judge\, we’re here for the vibes.\nIn collaboration with Sidequesters of Perth\, this event is all about making pitching feel playful\, social\, and actually fun. You do not need to be super polished\, super professional\, or have your life together. This is a space to show up\, have a go\, and enjoy being around other creative\, ambitious\, and slightly chaotic people. \nExpect short pitches\, fun energy\, drinks\, nibbles\, and a crowd that’s here to support\, laugh\, hype each other up\, and maybe hear the next big idea… or just a very convincing case for why someone’s friend is the catch of the century.
