WebTV for Aspiring Entrepreneurs
Pitching the next great idea to prospective business partners, investors, service providers and fellow entrepreneurs just got easier with Vator.tv — a new venture that combines online video and networking. Based on the proverbial elevator pitch—the notion that you should be able to sum up a new business venture in the few minutes it takes to ride an elevator—Vator.tv is an online marketplace for new ideas.
Here's how it works: users sign up for a free account. Create pitches for their ideas, projects or businesses by uploading video, images, PPT or PDF files. Choose to share pitches with a personal network or the entire Vator.tv community. The website includes tips on creating compelling pitches, such as how to pack the most punch into a three-minute video clip.
Launched in June 2007, Vator.tv has some big names behind it, including angel investors Peter Thiel, co-founder of PayPal, Richard Rosenblatt, former Chairman of MySpace, and Georges Harik, a former Google executive who helped build Google's AdSense technology.
