Join Future Founders for the 2nd Annual U.Pitch Competition & Showcase, an initiative of Future Founders Startup. We are excited to announce that Daymond John will be joining us as a judge! During the event, the top students from a cross-section of Midwestern universities will compete in the ultimate elevator pitch competition for incredible exposure, connections, and part of a $10,000 cash prize pool!

As many as 24 semi-finalist students will participate in the Showcase, an expo-style reception, in which you, the audience, will vote on which business or idea should win the People’s Choice prize.

The winners of the semi-finals will present their 90 second elevator pitches on a for-profit business or idea in the Live Finals Round in front of hundreds of people from the community and to a judging panel of top entrepreneurs, investors, and VCs.

College-age students or recent alumni who want to pitch should apply at www.futurefounders.com by November 16 at 5:00 pm.
