The Final Pitch, the pioneering business reality show in the Philippines, is thrilled to announce the launch of its landmark tenth season. This milestone also marks the debut of an exciting new series, The Final Pitch Philippines, as the show looks forward to future international expansion.
The show is now accepting entries until June 21, 2024. Philippine-based tech or non-tech startups or individuals with groundbreaking ideas for new ventures are encouraged to apply for the opportunity to pitch their business concepts to a panel of esteemed judges and potential investors. Interested applicants must apply through the official application form on the show’s website.
“As we set our sights on expanding the show globally, we are excited to debut The Final Pitch: Philippines to differentiate it from the other editions we plan on mounting. Before we open the show to our expansion to other countries, we want to continue creating opportunities for more Filipinos. Naturally enterprising, Filipinos have immense potential for creating innovative businesses, yet most lack the funding and support to scale these enterprises into high-growth companies. That’s where we come in with the new season to be named The Final Pitch: Philippines," said John Aguilar, Founder and Host of The Final Pitch.
The Final Pitch showcases entrepreneurial talent and equips aspiring entrepreneurs with the tools and mindset to scale their businesses and secure strategic partnerships and investments. It provides a unique platform that connects entrepreneurs with investors, facilitating the discovery and funding of promising new businesses.
This season's panel of investor judges includes Su Le, a Vietnamese-American angel investor based in the UAE; Abdul Paravengal, Managing Director of venture builder Pulse 63 Healthcare Ventures; Glenda Dela Cruz, founder of the revolutionary skincare brand Brilliant Skin, and returning special guest judge Rosemarie Bosch Ong, COO and Senior Executive Vice President of Wilcon Depot.
