Tuesday Push - cmypitch.ie
This weeks Tuesday push is cmypitch.ie - a site which offers a way for entreprenuers to pitch to investors. From the site:
Introduction
cmypitch.ie connects entrepreneurs with investors. It is the first website in Ireland to leverage video in connecting entrepreneurs with investors. It launched on 26th June 2009 in partnership with Bank of Scotland (Ireland), Deloitte, Microsoft, The Irish Times and William Fry.
Entrepreneur Benefits
cmypitch.ie provides businesses with the unique opportunity to upload their own video pitch onto the secure platform, for a registered network of investors to watch and inform their investment decisions. In addition, entrepreneurs can learn how to become “investor ready” by watching video tips from the best Irish (e.g. Eddie Jordan, Ray Nolan) and international (e.g. Doug Richard, James Caan) entrepreneurs and by downloading the best ‘how to’ guides.
Investor Benefits
For investors, cmypitch.ie has the potential to open up all of Ireland’s best investment opportunities and makes identifying the most attractive deals more efficient. Investors can save valuable time, allowing them to not only assess the business opportunity but also the people behind the proposition. Pitches can be filtered by size, sector and rating - all key considerations for investors. Investors can also receive email alerts when a new pitch is added that matches their preferred criteria.
“cmypitch Live” Event
cmypitch.ie will also hold regular offline pitching events called “cmypitch Live”, where entrepreneurs get the unique opportunity to pitch to a room full of investors. Events like these will offer entrepreneurs the opportunity to complement their video pitch with more traditional face-to-face pitching and networking.
The site allows you to upload your pitch and for investors to look at these pitches and make decision. There is also a lot of handy reference material available.
The look and styling of the site is spot on:

There seems to be a lot of big business and high profile people involved so it looks like it could be a winner.
Well done Emmett Kilduff - great contribution to startup businesses!
