What It Is ?

What is Pitch & Plate?

Pitch & Plate isn’t a typical networking event – it’s a storytelling dinner experience where business steps off the stage and sits at the table.  In a warm, elegant setting in Marbella, we bring together founders, entrepreneurs and curious minds who believe that real opportunities are born through real conversations.  Instead of slick slide decks, guests share their journeys over a shared meal – because partnerships don’t start with a pitch deck, they start with human connection.

Food lowers walls. Stories build trust.

Our Vision

We believe that when people break bread together, something magical happens: food lowers our defences, stories open doors and opportunities simply appear.  Our goal is to cultivate a global community where meaningful relationships spark collaboration, innovation and positive impact.

Our Story

Pitch & Plate was born in Marbella in 2025.  The first edition, held on 24 October 2025 at Restaurante Jacarè, gathered 50 founders for an intimate lunch.  Three speakers – all entrepreneurs – shared candid tales of achievement, setbacks and the unexpected turns that shaped their journeys. Participants were invited to share what they offered, ask for what they needed and forge connections that left a mark. The second edition, on 12 December 2025 at LØV Olivia Valère, expanded to an evening gala in partnership with the World Network Group.  CEOs, creators and business leaders from more than 20 nationalities enjoyed fine dining and meaningful human stories on a beautiful stage.  Each ticket included an elegant dinner, drinks, access to talks and activities, participation in gift surprises, and support for charity — €5 from every ticket was donated to a local cause.

Our community continues to grow, and each edition builds on the same core values: authenticity, generosity and connection.
