Pitch Night
What it is
Five minutes to pitch your idea to a panel of local entrepreneurs to win.
- Q&A, feedback, advice on your idea
- Services from other local businesses for things like web design, marketing, accounting, and legal help
- Up to $5,000
- Most importantly: ongoing mentorship/support as you get to work
Why we’re doing this
We want to build a strong local network of entrepreneurs. Ultimately, as a City and a region, we all succeed or fail together.
Who should pitch
Anyone with a Goshen address or wanting to start a business in Goshen with the following:
- Clearly defined problem/solution
- Evidence of feasibility, i.e. capital, knowledge, market potential, ability to launch/implement within six months
- Clearly defined business model, i.e. how does the business make money
- Competitive differentiation/advantage
- Explanation of how the winnings would accelerate the business toward launch/growth, i.e. how will the dollars be utilized
5 Minutes not enough?
Sure it is, there are lots of good resources out there about what to include. Here’s one. Alan and Jon will help you.
When is Pitch Night?
During Indiana Entrepreneurship Week, June 14?]20, 2016.
