Pitch night was done and dusted but we weren’t. The Tuesday night before pitch night we went to the RMIT Global Futures Forum because between preparing for pitch night and finishing uni assignments, we had all the time in the world.
It turned out to be quite interesting and we met quite an interesting bunch of people. One of which was a guy called Aun from Foundation for Young Australians (FYA). As it was the night before pitch night, Sing and I were using every opportunity to practice our elevator pitch and get our idea out there. Aun happened to be one of our unsuspecting audiences. We pitched and he told us about a program FYA was running with PwC in regards to STEM education and said our idea would be perfect for it. Applications opened for PwC’s 21st Century Minds Accelerator Program, we read all of the information and that became our next target.
We met up with Aun and another person from FYA called Hayley and they told us more about the program and we just wanted to do it even more. Unfortunately this was during our exam period so we decided to complete the application after we had completed our exams so we could properly focus on the application during the week before the closing date. LOLJK we are very good at procrastinating so instead of studying (sometimes) we downloaded the application forms and started to brainstorm some responses.
So…Sing and I aren’t exactly the most articulate people. These were some of our first draft responses after hours of studying
