Audience is college students + 1 professor

2-3 minutes max (it is an elevator pitch) so can’t go into technicalities, nor do I wish to. Will focus on the main problem it solves.

Edit: I successfully presented, thanks everyone

    An elevator pitch should be 30 seconds max, and if you’re pitching an fediverse project, it should be both novel and something that either solver a problem or addresses a need— again, in a novel way.

    Since it’s an academic endeavor, bonus points for FOSS projects. Maybe think of needs in the developing world or those disadvantaged close to home and how you could develop alternative, federated services to meet needs currently serviced ineffectively by for-profit corporations.

      So the assignment says 2-3 mins max, I’m aiming for ~90s. I’m not sure 30s will be enough to explain the concept well enough and might leave the audience more confused.
