Christoph Sollich aka The Pitch Doctor is a freelance startup consultant specializing in business model generation, marketing and - obviously - pitching. After writing his diploma thesis about “Virtual Communities” (old-school speak for “Social Networks”) and a detour through advertising (as a copywriter) he started working in startups in 2007, since 2009 as a freelancer. After winning multiple “Best Pitch” awards (and very few awards for his ideas!) at hackathons and startup weekends, startups started asking his advice about pitching - The Pitch Doctor was born. He has since helped 100s of startups with their pitches, also working as a pitch coach/mentor for many accelerators/incubators/startup competitions around Europe and MENA. In his spare time, The Pitch Doctor is founder and CEO (Chief Equine Officer) of RydeMyPony.com ("Collaboratively Consuming Ponies Together"), the soon-to-be-IPOed startup mega-success from Berlin (in funding talks with Ashton Kutcher).
