Varsity Pitch Competition: An International Stock Pitch Competition

The Oxford Alpha Fund presents, in collaboration with Cambridge University Investment and Finance Society, an inter-university competition open to undergraduate students, promoting discretionary investing at a grassroots level, seeking to identify and cultivate the next generation of investing talent.

Throughout the competition, participants receive exclusive industry and sponsor insights, personalised feedback on their ideas and the opportunity to progress to an in-person finals to pitch to industry professionals.

Superbly organised event, set a very high bar in terms of standard of presentations, dexterity of analysis. Looking forward to next year!
