What to submit:
Submissions are in the form of a video pitch or PDF or PPT. But we really encourage video so Vator can highlight and feature some of the pitches throughout the duration of the contest.

How to submit:
It's quick, easy and free. Register and hit "upload a pitch" and create a profile for your submission. The more comprehensive, the more likely to get votes, ratings and be reviewed.

How to win:
Vator competitions use the "wisdom of the crowds" approach to find true gems. At Vator, we let the Vator community winnow down the selection process to the top five. Those five will be chosen based on most votes, positive comments, and highest ratings. Of those five, it's up to the final judges, consisting of AO's editorial team, to determine who will present at the conference.

If AO does not choose the company recognized by the Vator community as the clear winner, Vator will extend recognition to that company and name the company winner selected by the Vator community.

So, get the Vator community to help find those winners. These video pitches will be public so the Vator community can help vet the deals. So, for those pitching, encourage your friends or colleagues to comment and rate your video pitches and/or to upload their own video pitch about why your video pitch is the best. For those who don't want to share their secret sauce, share what you can. But remember: Success is 2% idea, 98% execution. In other words: Ideas are one thing, executing is everything.
