PitchIT and Channel Program are proud to present this year's preliminaries: Battle Royale—Channel Edition!
PitchIT™ is our annual accelerator program, dedicated to incubating growth in our startup integration partners dedicated to the MSP space. Now in its 6th year, we’re looking to take a new group of innovators to new heights!
How do we help those companies selected to this year’s program?
- The companies take part in a 16-week business transformation course, led by industry experts, covering sales, marketing, branding and messaging, product security, and more, plus pitch-building
- We also engage in co-marketing with this year’s selected vendors on a series of webinars within the MSP space to gain awareness, refine their pitches, and share their expertise to our partners
- Listing on ConnectWise Marketplace to highlight their integrations to our partners
- The top 3 finalists are paired with a coach, and present their pitch live at IT Nation Connect
- $100,000 in grant award money – not an investment – to the top 2 finishers ($70,000 for 1st place, $30,000 for 2nd)

Our experience has been transformative. PitchIT is an executive MBA for MSP startup vendors. We may have won the competition, but the outcome doesn’t encapsulate the comprehensive journey we had. We met ConnectWise leaders, learned from SMEs and found synergies with the other competitors. Those connections are still alive and thriving – and we are helping each other navigate the MSP space.
