Each will have exactly 60 seconds to pitch their startup in front of\u00a0a panel of expert judges, including TC editors and local venture capitalists. Judges will conduct a quick Q&amp;A after each rapid fire pitch, and at the end of all the presentations the panel will determine the winners.<\/p>\n<p>First place at the London Meetup + Pitch-off <strong>wins a table in Startup Alley<\/strong> at TechCrunch Disrupt Berlin. Second place gets two tickets to the show, and the Audience Choice winner takes home one ticket to the conference.<\/p>\n<p>Apply to pitch our editors and panel of judges <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/tcevents.typeform.com\/to\/XPlXnw\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And\u00a0even if you aren\u2019t interested in pitching on stage yourself, the Meetups are a great opportunity to network with the local tech community and meet\u00a0TechCrunch writers. Plus, there will be <em>beer<\/em> (and, if I have my way, tea also).<\/p>\n<p>Buy tickets for just \u00a310 by <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/event-info\/meetup-pitch-off-berlin-2016\/#tickets\">following this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Laters!<\/p>\n<p><em>Sponsors make TechCrunch events possible.
