BIM, Banning & Tilaa organise the third edition of See you in Court 2025

Unique start-up pitch event in Brabant

Why are we joining forces, what can you expect from the collaboration?
BIM, Banning Advocaten, and Tilaa are collaborating to organize the second edition of the unique pitch event with a nod to the court: See you in Court 2025. In the historic former Palace of Justice, home of Banning Advocaten, start-ups will ‘plead’ their business case and take on the challenge with each other. With a diverse, three-member jury and a varied audience, six start-ups from the region will have the opportunity to present their business models. The participating start-ups will pitch their business case in two types of rounds. Starting with “the bottom round,” where the public will also have a chance to cast a vote for the favorite start-up. The final round, “the appeal,” makes only one start-up emerge victorious and they win “this case. And all this, of course, in toga!
