About this Event
Join us as we celebrate Tiger innovation, creativity, and collaboration in action. The Louis H. Stumberg Venture Competition is a multi-part student competition. Hosted every spring and fall, each cohort of students has an opportunity to compete for a chance to win mentorship and funding for their startup. Of the teams that competed in the Stumberg Seed Round, five won $7,000 in seed funding for their venture and an opportunity to participate in the Trinity Incubator. Teams will compete again in the Final Round for the $50,000 grand prize. Both the San Antonio Community and the Trinity Community are encouraged to join us in person to witness the live pitches.
