A hands-on, result-based program enabling graduates, undergraduates, and young professionals to effectively pitch an idea started in Athens on Friday. It is a series of pitching and presentation skills workshops which will take place over the next three weekends at Utech Lab, the digital center for youth at the Eugenides Foundation.   With support from the American Embassy, Mindspace, the student-led business incubator at the Athens Polytechnic, and two public speaking and business consulting instructors offer a demanding, rewarding, and fun experience to 43 participants.  Each student created a project pitch and presented it, taking home winning skills like self-confidence, storytelling, effective use of PowerPoint, and visual communication basics to use for their lifetime!
