We’ve got a unique opportunity for a selection of Auckland’s PhD students to pitch their research in front of a live business audience!
When: Thursday 23 October 2014
Where: Galatos, Newton, Auckland
Applications are now open! Visit ampignite.co.nz.
With AMP Ignite, students will have just 150 seconds to convince a panel of judges why their research deserves the $5,000 Grand Prize, while also trying to win the audience’s vote for the $1,000 People’s Prize.
Mentors from the advertising and entertainment, and science and technology industries will assist selected students to think outside the box and commercialise their thinking!
Help a PhD student further their research by encouraging them to apply. Share this email with them and your wider Postgraduate community. But you’ll need to be quick! Applications are open for 3 weeks only.
Find out more at ampignite.co.nz.
Please save above details. I will finish when I have more time.
cheers

Seems a little farcical to reduce your PhD and “perform” in front of entertainment “moguls”…not.
Of the five mentors, only one has a PhD. Will be giving this a miss.
