New Wave – Talent Pitch Contest BALTEXPO 2025

Have an idea for your career in the maritime or military industry? Share it with the world!

Forget cover letters and the standard CV that gets lost among hundreds of others. We're looking for your vision, passion, and authenticity. As part of BALTEXPO 2025 Education, Career, and Work Day, we're launching a competition where you're the center of attention.

We're giving you a stage, a microphone, and the attention of the most important people in the industry—managers and recruiters from leading companies. Your task? In just a few minutes, convince them that you're the new wave of talent they've been waiting for.

Apply and win your future! Two simple steps separate you from success:

  • Step 1: Participate in the online casting call. Complete the application form, add a short description of your idea (up to 400 characters), and attach a 60-second Elevator Pitch video. Share your career vision, goals, and motivations. This is your digital calling card and your ticket to the grand finale. A jury will evaluate all submissions and select the best ones.
  • Step 2: Perform live at BALTEXPO. We will invite the top 5 speakers to the Finals, which will take place on a dedicated stage at BALTEXPO on October 9, 2025, at 10:30 AM on the main stage in Hall D. Selected speakers will then receive 3-5 minutes to present their idea live, sharing their success story, and 2 minutes to answer questions from the Competition Jury. This is your chance to showcase your talent and compete for attractive prizes.
