Win up to $15,000 | Vibe Your SaaS Startup Pitch Competition @ Atlassian HQ

The VYS Startup Pitch Competition:

That's right, we've partnered with Papermark to give $2,500 to the winner of our November 17th startup pitch competition. And if that wasn't enough, all of those pitches will also be entered in the Papermark global $15,000 startup pitch competition. So that’s two separate chances to win cash and be recognized as a startup with the potential to go the distance. You're a founder and want to enter. Sign up below. Once we receive your deck, we'll send all founders additional instructions on how to sign up with Papermark. You must agree to their terms to be eligible.

We feature 10 pitches and crown first-, second-, and third-place winners. We wanted to give early-stage founders even more opportunities to pitch and present. All three also get a feature in the VYS newsletter, which goes out to more than 7,500 founders, investors, and tech professionals.
