We are also celebrating entrepreneurship by hosting a Pitch Fest! UH students have the chance to share their business ideas (small business, tech business, social impact business, etc.) and win prizes for pitches!

How to Participate

Show up between 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with a 90 second (about 1 and a half minutes) pitch. We will record you for our judges to review and be in touch with the winners!

It should include:

  • A quick description of your business idea.
  • Who your customers are.
  • What value your business would provide to your customers.
  • Why do you believe it will be successful?

Judges will watch all the pitches and award the *Top 15* pitches!
