Pitch'd or Ditch'd — founders pitching to the Legacy Bench panel

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.

More than a polished pitch

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
  • 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.

When and where

The session will be recorded at the Legacy Bench Office, Manchester on Tuesday, 3 November 2026. See the event details.

Applications are now open
