Create your perfect pitch to be hired today.
21 May 2026 - Utrecht
Pitching is much more than just monologuing your resume - at least it should be. At its best, pitching is an art, and at its worst, it's an awkward elevator ride. But luckily, there are a few rules of thumb that can help make your pitch a hit. If you want to learn how to make people pay attention (and get enthusiastic!) when you're pitching yourself, your work, or the reasons you should be hired, this is the workshop for you.

Oncode Accelerator
Oncode Accelerator is a public-private program which aims to innovate and accelerate the development of new cancer therapies by placing cancer patients at the core of preclinical therapy development.
We realize this through the power of three innovation platforms: Patient Cohorts, Organoids and Artificial Intelligence.
Over 30 partners leverage the full potential of the Dutch innovation ecosystem by building development pipelines for four of the most common types of cancer therapies: Small Molecules, Biologics, Cell and Gene Therapies, and Therapeutic Vaccines.
Our world-class toolbox of state-of-the-art technologies will result in more effective, personalized cancer therapies. This will bring us closer to our overarching vision: outsmarting cancer, impacting lives.
At Innovation for Health, we will announce the opening of our first call and are actively looking for partners in biotech and pharma that can bring lead candidates into our pre-clinical program.
