Hosted by the Entrepreneurship Club and Horn Entrepreneurship, this event is more than just a pitch competition – it's a vibrant celebration of innovation, creativity, and community. Whether you're a seasoned startup enthusiast or just dipping your toes into the entrepreneurial waters, the Spring Pitch Party is the perfect platform to explore your potential as an entrepreneur.
Picture a room buzzing with energy, filled with like-minded peers eager to support and cheer you on. The atmosphere? Electric. This isn't your typical stuffy competition. It's a dynamic space where bold ideas are celebrated, feedback is constructive, and connections are forged.
Now, let's talk prizes. We're talking cash – a $700 prize pool, to be exact. But beyond the dollars, it's about the recognition, the validation, and the chance to receive feedback which could take your venture to the next level.
We're thrilled to announce that Mandy Zicherman and Devon Jones, successful alumni and industry professionals, will serve as judges for the Pitch Party, adding expertise and insight to the event. Our panel of judges isn't just a randomly picked group – they're successful alumni and industry pros who know what it takes to make it in the startup world. Their insights and feedback could be the difference between a good idea and a game-changing one.
The buzz and excitement was tangible at last fall's Pitch Party, and we heard so many cool pitches and ideas. From SafeSip's ingenious drink safety solution to Maker Pants' stylish yet practical design, we saw firsthand the incredible talent and innovation brewing right here on campus. And this spring, it's your turn to take center stage and show the world what you're made of.
Even if you don’t want to present an idea, the Pitch Party is a great way to get involved with UD’s entrepreneurship community and make connections. Everyone is super friendly, supportive, and inclusive of newcomers, making it the perfect time to explore your entrepreneurial self!
