Get ready to team up with seasoned entrepreneurs to transform your business idea into a compelling pitch over the course of one week! At the start of the event, we will pair you with other students and assign your team a mentor from the entrepreneurial community. Throughout the week, you and your team will collaborate to come up with, refine, and develop a pitch for an idea within the sector of the competition, which is a closely guarded secret that will only be revealed on Wednesday, November 6! On Thursday, November 14, your team will pitch your idea to a panel of experienced judges for a shot at winning a portion of the $2,000 prize pool!
