If you're planning to apply — or you're still deciding — this session is where you'll get the real breakdown: what judges are looking for, the standards your pitch needs to meet, and how to structure your story so it lands.
📍 What to expect:
· A walkthrough of the pitch standards and expectations
· The judging criteria, explained in detail
· Hands-on workshopping to sharpen your pitch
· A practical session facilitated by Thobane Vumindaba
