Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is #Pitch?

    We all want to make our communities better places to live, work, and play. But how can your business idea make a difference? Tell us about it!

    Perhaps you’re creating a business that offers jobs to people who would otherwise have difficulty finding them. Or maybe you’re trying to make life easier for people in your community by introducing a product, such as healthier food options, or a service, such as babysitting. Whatever your business idea is, just tell us how it can make your community a better place!

    In addition to winning awards, the challenge will help you develop both soft and hard skills during the challenge.
