Pitch'd or Ditch'd — November Recording

Pitch'd or Ditch'd returns this November — applications are open

Pitch'd or Ditch'd returns on 3 November 2026 for another Legacy Bench recording, bringing ambitious founders into the room to put their businesses, ideas and ambitions in front of investors and judges.

This isn't just about delivering a polished pitch. Founders should be ready to explain the opportunity they see, the problem they're solving, how the business works, who their customers are and why their idea deserves attention.

The judges and investors will have the opportunity to question the founders, challenge their assumptions and dig deeper into the businesses behind the pitches.

For founders, it's an opportunity to step forward, tell the story behind what they're building and put their business in front of people who are ready to ask the questions that matter.

The session will be recorded at the Legacy Bench Office, Manchester on Tuesday, 3 November 2026. This is a recorded session, not a public university event.

Applications are open

Applications are open now, and founders interested in pitching are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
