DESCRIPTION:Do you have a punchy 'elevator pitch' to sell your idea to a c
 ollaborator\, colleagues or potential funder? \n\nThe elevator pitch is im
 portant because it enables you to communicate quickly and effectively and 
 preparing one ensures that you are absolutely clear about what you’re of
 fering\, why it’s valuable and what you want next.\n\nOn Wednesday 20 Ja
 nuary\, between 15:30 and 17:30 we are holding a session to allow people t
 o rehearse their elevator pitches and receive advice from the Visiting Pro
 fessors of Innovation (http://www.eng.cam.ac.uk/research/strategic-themes/
 inspiring-research-through-industrial-collaboration/raeng-visiting). We’
 ll use the same format that worked so well during the recent ‘Sales for 
 researchers’ course.\n\nIf you’d like to come along\, either to pitch 
 or to observe\, then please contact Holly Shaw (has50@cam.ac.uk). There ar
 e a limited number of slots for pitches so if you want to pitch do please 
 let Holly know soon.\n\nThe session will be held in the Oatley Room and af
 ternoon refreshments will be provided – let Holly know if you have any d
 ietary requirements.
