Idea Idol 2008
Many thanks to the organisers, judges and audience of Idea Idol 2008. It was a wonderful event to be a part of; I didn’t come away with the prize at the end, but it more than delivered on my primary objectives, namely:
a) get over my public speaking jitters, and become, all round, a better communicator
b) get an experience of what makes a good pitch
c) meet interesting people
The confidence boost I got from the judges’ feedback will, over time, be worth more than the prize money, so I’m really, really grateful to all who took part in making it such a great event. I’ll post videos when they become available.
