Strengthen Your Start-up’s Pitch with Value Creation and Earn a Possible Path to e-Fest
WPI’s Business School and Innovation & Entrepreneurship Center are inviting undergraduate teams who have student-created and student-managed ventures, including new ventures, to strengthen their startup pitches. Let us know about your team’s venture and you could win $1,500 and one of three spots to advance to e-Fest, a national undergraduate entrepreneurship competition where teams can win $10K or more in cash prizes.
From the initial applications, 10 teams will be trained to develop a 7- minute pitch on the value of their business as part of a pitch challenge led by our expert leaders of WPI’s Value Creation Initiative. Those teams will compete for three top spots to advance to e-Fest. With funding support from WPI and contest sponsor the University of St. Thomas, winning student teams will win prize money to prepare pitches and register for the competition.
