Format of Last 2 ClassesI'd like you to benefit from the input from some folks from the business community. If we take the last 2 classes for pitches, everyone will not be able to enjoy this very valuable experience. (See Class Videos from last year. It was really fun. Many of the students last year said it was the most valuable experience they had at university.) Last year, we combined the last 2 classes into one. The last class was just like a typical venture forum, but at over 6 hours, it was too long. We have 15 business plan teams. If each team takes 25 minutes (15 mins for pitch and 10 for setup and questions) and we have a break or 2, that's over 6 hours. I'm thinking we could do this if:
If we did that, the agenda would look like this: 4:30
9:05
This agenda would take us 275 minutes (~4.5 hours) |

Pitches Revised to 8 Minutes
To confirm our discussion in class on Wednesday, we will reduce the total time for each pitch to 8 minutes. This will make it a much more humane and enjoyable last class.I have revised the agenda (above) accordingly.

Format of Last 2 Classes - Resolved that...
- We will merge the last 2 classes into one. Everyone in the class understands that this will make for a long Class #12 (possibly 7 hours!) on 19 November and that Class #13 will be cancelled
- We will start Class #12 at the regularly-scheduled time of 16:30.
- Each team will get their PowerPoint presentation to Ean well before the class. Let's say midnight two (2) days beforehand (Monday 17 November)
- The order of teams will be voluntarily preselected so all presenters know the order. (Please reply to Last Class - Order of Pitches above with your preference)
