In 2019, after many requests from members we organized the Dujat Showcase for the first time: an event that gives member companies the opportunity to present themselves, by giving a 5-minute pitch presentation on stage, or by exhibiting their products/services.
After evaluation we are pleased to announce that this has been a successful experiment, and that the Dujat Showcase will again take place this year, on Thursday 21 July at Hotel Okura Amsterdam.
Applications are now officially open for those who are interested in giving a 5-minute pitch presentation, or in participating as exhibitor at the showcase. Those who prefer to join as a visitor can also already register for the event and put it in their agenda.
We have taken the feedback for the 2019 edition in serious consideration and made a few changes with hopes to create an even better experience.
Participation:
Participation is open and free for all members. You can participate in 3 ways:
1. Participate as a speaker: Present your product, service or business idea in a pitch presentation on stage. Please note that the presentation can last max. 5 minutes. There is media equipment available.
2. Participate as an exhibitor: Showcase your product, service or business idea (we have a selection of big and small tables available).
3. Attend the event as a visitor and get to know other members, enjoy the presentations and the networking reception.
