A Super PITch is key in the competition for capital

That skill can’t be underestimated, according to event co-creator Corporate Storytime’s Lucas Robinson, who says companies are now working in a tight capital environment.

“It’s most important that they get their message across succinctly and clearly,” Mr Robinson said.
