    NOTE: Only 30 spots to pitch are available. We will give 20 priority spots based on advanced registration online and the remaining 10 will be given on a first come, first served basis on 6/27.
  2. 6/25: You will be notified by 6/25 if you receive a priority spot  
  3. Prepare your 90 second Elevator Pitch
  4. Arrive at 12:15pm and check-in and receive your scorecard.
    *If you don’t have a priority spot, arrive early to get one of the 10 “day of” spots to pitch.
  5. Pitch 3 times, once to each investor in a pedicab
  6. Top 3 pitches will pitch @ the keynote session 4:30 - 6:00pm on 6/27 and receive $1,000 in cash prizes**
**Top 3 will be notified via phone when the final scores are tallied and must pitch @ the keynote to be eligible for prizes. Once notified, they must confirm their participation, if no confirmation is received, the runner up will be invited to pitch at the keynote.
