MIT has a 100K 60sec elevator pitch contest. http://www.mit100k.org/ or http://www.mit100k.org/featured/2009-elevator-pitch-contest-video/ >> its interesting to see strategies the pitches use and how the judges respond to them- what works, what is confusing. Although- there is alot of Emcee stuff so youtubing the contest for just the winning pitches might save some time. (They have a couple of really amusing ad/marketing videos on youtube as well if you are looking to kill some time - "sexy pitch" and "killer pitch") Thanks! really helpful.
