Pitch Party
About the program · 1 linked sources
Horn Entrepreneurship and the Entrepreneurship Club host Pitch Party each semester in the Venture Development Center. Undergraduates have 90 seconds to pitch a business, innovation, or invention to peers and recent entrepreneurial alumni. Props and prototypes are allowed. The page's prize sentence says three winners share a prize pool of $500 in cash funding, then lists $300 for first place, $200 for second, and $100 for third. Those place amounts add up to $600. Both figures are quoted from the same page.
This listing was compiled from public university pages on October 8, 2026. It is unclaimed and has not been confirmed by the school or a program director.
How we know this: the figures on this page come from the linked sources (last verified 2026-10-08); what those sources do not state is left unknown.
