My First Pitch: P.E.T.E.R wins the 2024 edition

On Thursday, November 28, 10 selected teams got on stage to present their innovative ideas at the 2024 edition of the “My First Pitch competition”, organised by USI and SUPSI and supported by Innosuisse. This event is designed for students and researchers who want to test their innovative ideas and gain valuable insights from a jury of experts.

“My First Pitch” is an annual competition organised by USI and SUPSI and promoted by Innosuisse as part of the federal training program “Innosuisse Start-up Training”. The participating teams had 3 minutes to pitch their innovative ideas in front of the expert jury and over 50 fellow students from USI and SUPSI. 

The winner of the 2024 edition that gets a 2-hour coaching session with a seasoned startup coach to help refine the project and guide it through its next phase of development is P.E.T.E.R, an AI-powered solution for better real estate investments developed by a group of USI master students.
