PITCH@IllinoisTech 2019

Congratulations to everyone who participated!

Pitch@IllinoisTech is a pitch competition hosted at Illinois Institute of Technology throughout the Spring semester. Students will receive the opportunity to form teams and work on a project or idea they are passionate about. The prerequisites are simple: it has to be sustainable and have a positive impact on a specific community. The purpose of this competition is to promote creative thinking, problem-solving skills, and a proactive attitude among the student body.

​

At the end of the competition, the top student teams will get to pitch to judges from Chicago Organizations, Startups, and Venture Capital firms. The top three teams are chosen by the judges and they get to take home prize money!
