What Past Attendees Are Saying “Before attending the MWTN Pitching Workshop, I had a basic understanding of pitching, but I wasn’t quite sure how to bring all the elements together into a clear, compelling pitch. After participating, I gained the confidence and tools I needed to build strong, well-rounded pitches—and it worked! I’ve since received positive responses that opened new opportunities. As a bonus, I explored a fantastic destination and built connections that turned into real collaborations. This workshop was a game changer for me.” — Veronica Bareman
