For the first time, The Genesis Pitch caps off three days of events during techNL’s Innovation Week 2025, bringing together the province’s tech ecosystem in one powerful showcase.
More than $45,000, including a $25,000 top prize and the iconic Pitcher Plant trophy.
The Genesis Pitch brings together the province’s most promising startups. All applicants have taken part in Genesis programs or held Membership within the past three years. For many, it’s their first shot at the spotlight.
Five finalists will take the stage to share their vision, traction, and potential. A packed room of founders, funders, and friends will be there to see who stands out and takes home the top prize.
Show us what you’re building. If you're eligible, here's how to apply:
You don’t need a pitch deck or a polished idea. Just the drive to start.
When the prizes are handed out, the celebration continues at Pitch & Party.
This exclusive afterparty brings together founders, partners, investors, and the broader community in a more relaxed setting. A perfect chance to toast the winners and build new connections.
Details to be announced soon!
The Genesis Pitch would not be possible without the support of partners who believe in growing Newfoundland & Labrador’s tech sector. Sponsors can help shape the experience, from the main event to Pitch & Party, and even the prizes that recognize and reward our founders.
Contributions may be financial or in-kind, with creative opportunities to align your brand directly with the competition and its winners.
