# REMINDER: TechfestNW PitchfestNW applications are due January 16, 2019

Wait what? You thought the [TechfestNW](https://techfestnw.com) PitchfestNW applications were [due in 2018](https://siliconflorist.com/2018/11/26/start-practicing-your-2019-pitch-techfestnw-pitchfestnw-2019-applications-are-open/)? Well, they were. But that was only the first group. There’s a second application period. And it ends this week. So if you’ve been procrastinating, [you should probably get on completing that application](https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Pitchfest2019).

> PitchfestNW, the startup competition and conference within TechfestNW, brings together a diverse group of companies from around the globe and across industries to pitch to a panel of VCs.
> 
> Participating startups are chosen by a selection committee, and all TechfestNW attendees are invited to stop by, hear some pitches, and learn about the amazing work from these innovative new companies. The top 5 startups will present to the entire conference and a special panel of judges, and the winner will be announced on Friday afternoon!

If that sounds like something that would help your startup, [you should apply](https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Pitchfest2019). Like now.
