If you’re an undergrad with a startup idea or business that’s already up and running, you’re invited to apply to the first “Student Pitch-off” at Startup Connection, Nov. 16 at Olin. Pitch teams may consist of up to four students. Businesses can be in any industry and anywhere in the startup process – from ideation to in-market.

Selected student teams will have the opportunity to deliver their three-minute pitch to a panel of judges at the event, Wednesday, November 16 at Washington University. The student teams will compete for up to $1,500 in cash prizes to help move their businesses forward.
