The Pitch Business Competition
Submission Deadline: March 31, 2024
For the second year in a row, ECPI University business students will be able to enter The Pitch, a business competition. Styled after the popular TV show, Shark Tank, this contest requires business students to come up with a unique business idea and submit an elevator pitch video (10 minutes or less) including their business name, description of the product or service, the problem it solves, and their business’ competitive advantage. From there, faculty judges coined The Rams (see what they did there?) will review each submission and vote on who gets their “Ram Dollars.” The top three pitches will receive a scholarship: $300 for 1st, $200 for 2nd and $100 for 3rd! For more information, email Niccole Kopit, Dean of Business Management, at nkopit@ecpi.edu.
