In-person | Hybrid pitching
We’ll kick off the event in the Main Stage (Room 270) and the associated Zoom link. Teams in each track will then simultaneously pitch in Rooms 270, 265 and 260. Pitches are 5 minutes long, followed by 5 minutes of Q&A by judges.
Online Q&A via Slido
In-person and virtual attendees can ask any team a question through an online platform called Slido. Click “Ask a question” for any track below. Upvote/downvote existing questions, or ask a new question in this format: “[TEAM NAME] Question”.
Networking Reception, Winner Announcements and Celebration
There will be a networking reception on the Bridge on the second floor of the Joyce Cummings Center after teams present while judges deliberate.
We will reconvene in the Main Stage (Room 270) and the associated Zoom link for the winners announcement.
Join us for a celebration on the Bridge afterwards.
