Reverse Pitch Project KIT619
Introduction
The reverse industry pitch project unit is the capstone unit for the graduate diploma. This unit provides an opportunity for students to demonstrate their skills to a problem pitched by industry to develop a market ready and innovative solution. This unit operates in a competitive environment (shark tank) where there is a focus on how the products are developed, pitched and perceived by stakeholders and relevant markets. The expectation is that the solution will be market ready.
