Get Feedback from the audience and panelists
Whether you’re already in business or you’re launching a new idea, register to pitch your business concept and receive feedback. (No pitch decks here!)
This is your opportunity to get up in front of an audience of experts and peers and showcase your business idea. (Focus on its value proposition, market opportunity, competitive advantage, and growth potential.)
Each of our panelists will provide feedback/ask questions for each pitcher. Then, our audience will vote for the winner (best presentation/best concept). The winner will receive a one-hour Strategy Session.
We’re accepting two pitchers ahead of time AND we’ll choose one wild card live at the event.
