The Vassar Innovation and Entrepreneurship Program invites all to attend our first-ever Entrepreneur Pitch Competition!

The 2024 Entrepreneur Pitch Competition is a high-level business pitch competition for our program participants, where they can showcase their entrepreneurial prowess and connect with alums, mentors, faculty, peers, and community members. This event culminates our participants’ semester-long efforts into a real-world entrepreneurial practice. Join us as we celebrate their ingenuity and engage with their entrepreneurial ventures!

There is a $2,500 prize for the first-place winner, as well as additional prizes for other projects. The first-place prize, as well as other prizes, are generously funded by Ellen Rudnick ʼ72.

This event is free and open to all, and food and refreshments will be provided. Registration is highly encouraged, and can be done at: go.vassar.edu/vie/pitchtickets
