FAQ
The essence of this competition lies in setting up the pilots under favorable conditions, and unlike a regular investor event, it doesn’t have to result in just one winner. The competition is about determining which startup is the best fit for the energy stakeholders/investors to compete for.
The offer and cooperation to carry out the pilot will be open to all participants. However, the final
terms of the agreement will not be published if both the developer and the investor request confidentiality. Nevertheless, project updates will be provided every six months for a total of 24 months from the event.
Entrepreneurs are required to provide a brief background on their company, but the focal point of their pitch should be on the proposed pilot and the relevant parameters, such as cost, return on investment, technological risk, required resources, and potential for scaleup.
The process involves four key steps:
- Submission of proposals by entrepreneurs.
- Selection of 8 entrepreneurs whose proposals show promise.
- Preparation day for the selected entrepreneurs to refine their pitch.
- Presentation of their pitches at the main event of Eilat Eilot.
The competition is open to leading individuals in the field of energy from Israel and around the world. These energy stakeholders are primarily interested in pilot-oriented projects.
