With a final selection rate of just 0.05%, The Pitch is set to be more selective than leading startup accelerators.
Global HR and payroll platform, Deel, announced the launch of The Pitch, an international competition designed to identify, elevate, and fund promising seed-stage startups.
The Pitch will engage over 20,000 startups across seven global regions, culminating in a total investment pool of up to US$15 million. Up to 100 regional winners will receive US$50,000 in investment each, while up to ten global champions will receive a US$1 million investment each to scale their visions.
Starting today, applications are open to seed-stage founders worldwide. The journey will lead to seven in-person regional finals in tech hubs, including Singapore, New York, London, and Berlin, before the global finale in May 2026.
