Last chance for startups to win MediaCityUK space

Orega is still welcoming #StartMeUp Pitch entries as 15 January deadline approaches.

Serviced office provider Orega is reminding new businesses that there’s under a month to go until the closing date of its #StartMeUp Pitch competition to win free office space at MediaCityUK.

Orega will be giving one lucky winner their own office for four people in Blue Tower for six months at the iconic Salford Quays. Two runners up will each receive flexi-desk coworking packages in The Blue Room at Orega MediaCity for six months

Entering the #StartMeUp Pitch is straightforward: start ups simply need to film and submit a 60-second business pitch via the Orega website by 15 January 2017. The pitch video can be filmed on a smart phone or tablet for ease, although professional video submissions are also welcome.

The public will be invited to vote for shortlisted video pitches online, and the most popular will pitch to Orega face to face in March.

Suzanne Machray, Head of Marketing at Orega, said: “It’s been great to watch the entries we’ve had so far and we’re excited to see some rising stars coming through.

“With 2017 just around the corner, the Christmas break is a great time to take stock and plan ahead. If you haven’t entered your start up yet, why not film a pitch and see where it could take you? It could be the best minute you’ve ever spent!”

More information on how to enter the #StartMeUp Pitch can be found on Orega’s website at https://www.orega.com/startmeup-pitch. The competition will close on 15 January 2017.
