PITCH CHALLENGE Entries due by 11:59 EST on May 31st

Entering is Simple!

  • Enter as an individual or team of up to 4 by creating a video of your team pitching the business idea.

  • Keep the camera focused on you for most of the video. We want to see and hear you pitching your idea. We don’t want to see a commercial.

  • Keep your video short, 30-90 seconds is the time frame.

  • Entries will be judged on the CREATIVITY of the idea, business name, and video; the PERSUASIVENESS of the elevator pitch; and the OVERALL QUALITY of the idea, pitch and video.
