At some tech events, the speakers are treated like royalty, while the punters fight for the best seats.

The Power of One, taking place at Battersea Power Station on 11.11.11, isn’t like that.

On the contrary, we want to completely break down the them-and-us feeling that you often get. We want to encourage our speakers to meet the people eye to eye and answer the deepest questions about their entrepreneurial success.

So we’re giving you the chance to have dinner all the speakers, the night before the event. Imagine... Jason Calacanis sitting on your right. Morten Lund on your left, and David McCandless and Richard Kramer chatting to energetic Yosi Taguri opposite. Sam Ramji’s at the bar ordering another round of drinks. If you’re looking for start-up inspiration, it does not get better than this.

We have five places at this one-off table and will be drawing names at random from those who have bought tickets for the event by midnight on Friday 28 October.

People who have already bought tickets will be automatically entered into the draw. So if you’re still waiting to buy your ticket, don’t wait any more. Take the plunge this week and make sure you’re not only getting an incredible full day event for £99, but you’re in with the chance to spend an evening with these start-up legends.

Visit the Power of One website to buy tickets. Today.

So you have heard about the Power of One, right? It's a celebration of tech start ups and how they can change the world. You can see we have an amazing line up of inspirational speakers over at http://p0wer0f1.com including Jason Calacanis, Morten Lund, Sam Ramji and David McCandless.

We have one speaking slot left free, why is that?

We want to offer that slot to the best new tech start up or start up idea we can find. No need to submit a business plan just fill out this short and simple google form and we will sift through the entries and pick out the best one.

If you win you get 20 minutes of prime time in the middle of the conference to pitch your business. You will be up there in lights next to Jason and Morten, you will be presenting to 300 people who could become customers and a bunch of potential investors on stage at Battersea Power station.

Those questions in the google form come from the Guy Kawasaki book The Art of the Start, this book, in our opinion is the best book available for budding tech entrepreneurs to read before they start. The submissions will be based on the criteria set out by Guy in his book.

Submit your entry now:

Submit the info on the form and we will tweet from @p0wer0f1 updates on the review process. We will let you know via email if you have been successful or unsuccessful. The judges decision is final. There will not be any preliminary rounds, no practice pitches.

DEADLINE: MONDAY 24TH OCTOBER 11:59pm

Everybody who submits a start up or an idea will get a heavily discounted ticket for the event on 11.11.11.

If you are worried about what people will hear about your business on the day, or the information you require to give in the form then you probably should not enter your company to pitch.
