Applicants can record a 60-second “elevator pitch” and upload it to the Reviewr platform on the competition website. Organizers recommend uploading the video to YouTube, making it private and including the hyperlink in the online application. Applicants are encouraged to sell their ideas with enthusiasm in their videos, rather than relying on special graphics and editing. They will receive feedback from the panel of judges and perhaps more importantly the public, who may become their first customers.
