Come join TechArtista for a round of Pitch Karaoke, in preparation for STL Startup Week.  Planning on attending one of the many pitch competitions throughout the week of programming?  Then you better practice! 

What is Pitch Deck Karaoke?
Pitch Deck Karaoke is a happy hour improv game where you pitch to an audience without knowing the contents of the deck, prior to the pitch. It's a game that tests your skills, gets people laughing, and keeps everyone wondering what will happen next.

What if I'm nervous?
Fear not!  We will be providing a healthy amount of liquid courage to help you get through it.  Free 4 Hands beer and wine for all attendees.

What do I get if I win?
Winners will receive 6-months of free Drop-In Membership to all TechArtista spaces for you and your whole team (a $750 value per person for up to 5 people). Learn more and register
