In preparation for the upcoming Ohio Business Matchmaker held in Dayton, Ohio on May 3-4, 2023, we will be offering Virtual Mock Matchmaker Pitch Sessions – which will allow small businesses the opportunity to present (pitch) their company capabilities to a panel of judges. The judges will review presentations and provide feedback on each company’s pitch, and their Capability Statement. These sessions will help prepare companies to meet one-on-one with government buyers at the Ohio Business Matchmaker event in May.

Presentation Format: Virtual pitch sessions will be scheduled in 20 minute intervals. Each small business will have 7 minutes to pitch; immediately following the panel of judges will have 10 minutes to provide feedback; then 3 minutes will be allotted to transition to the next session.
