TechCircle is excited to announce the fifth edition of Pitch2Win, Nigeria’s leading startup pitch competition designed to spotlight and support promising early-stage startups. Scheduled for July 30, 2025, this year’s event promises to be the most impactful yet.
Fifteen (15) startups will pitch live before a panel of 30+ global investors and leading local VCs for a chance to win a $10,000 equity-free grant and gain visibility among decision-makers actively seeking to invest in Nigeria’s tech ecosystem.
Pitch2Win has a proven track record of launching startups into growth. Just last year, Regxta, the winner of Pitch2Win 4, went on to raise almost $400,000 in funding within one week of the event. Other alumni like Pharmarun, Tyms, and ZeroComplex AI also secured major funding and strategic partnerships after their participation in the third edition in 2023.
“Pitch2Win is more than just a pitch competition. It’s a launchpad,” said Oo Nwoye, Founder of Techcircle. “We’re proud to connect high-potential startups with the capital, visibility, and expert feedback they need to scale.”
