Elevator Pitch
3 Minute Wonders
Last year, our infamous JAM session was massively popular, so much so that we decided to extend the format this year! At FOTB09 we are going to give 20 hot designers and developers a chance to throw down quick fire for 3 minutes each! The "ELEVATOR PITCH' will give hot new talent the chance to show their best and coolest stuff. It gives them a chance to get exposure, and gives us a chance to meet them and see them do their thing.
The Elevator Pitch is exactly what the title suggests - 20 'newbies' / 'oldies' / whatever you want to call them, get 3 minutes to show their best work, a new idea, live coding, live drawing, whatever.
Every year we get inundated with speaker proposals. We want to say yes to everyone but of course simply don't have the room.

It is a chance for new speakers who not doing sessions during the conference to get some exposure, and a chance for us, the audience to see new talent.
The Elevator Pitch is gonna be mish mash of designers, developers and creatives throwing down their stuff in 3 minutes!
It could go horribly wrong, or it could be the coolest hour you see in the entire conference!
