Join the El Pomar Institute for Innovation & Commercialization (EPIIC) and Peak Startup on Wednesday, April 19th, featuring six businesses pitching ventures and a lively panel of business-savvy judges. The top business pitch will win the 1st place prize of $1000.
This event will be structured similarly to the popular ABC TV show Shark Tank™. Viewers have enjoyed this interesting format of the show in which entrepreneurs present their business ideas to well-known investors.
The event will follow the TV show’s format, featuring six local ventures. Entrepreneurs will have five minutes to pitch deals to a panel of entrepreneurs/investors. The panel will then provide feedback to presenters, ask tough business questions, and decide which teams are worthy of the $1750 in prize money. (1st Place Prize is $1000, 2nd Place Prize is $750)
The event is open to the community and students, investors and entrepreneurs are encouraged to attend. RSVP is required to attend. Please click link below to register for this event.
