This course is for Papua New Guinean founders, farmers, women entrepreneurs, students and cooperative leaders who need to win support for an idea or business. Whether you are asking a bank for a loan, a supermarket to stock your product, or a donor programme for seed funding, a clear and honest pitch makes the difference.
- Basic: why pitching matters, telling your founder story, describing a real problem and solution, and building a 60-second pitch.
- Intermediate: making simple slides on a phone or laptop, calculating the numbers funders want (unit profit, break-even, use of funds), practising, handling tough questions, and communicating across PNG’s cultures.
- Advanced: tailoring your pitch to banks, buyers and donors, preparing for accelerator programmes and demo days in PNG, and negotiating fair deals in writing.
All you need is a phone, a notebook and a business or idea you care about. Each lesson ends with a practical task you can do this week, using local examples in kina. Content reflects PNG conditions as of November 2026; always confirm current programme details and loan rates with the organisation concerned.
