Finding The Next Big Thing

Please join The Society of Entrepreneurs and Epicenter at The Next Big Thing, a $10,000 Pitch Competition featuring five emerging start-ups. At the event five entrepreneurs will “pitch” their business and investment opportunity in brief, dynamic, three- to five-minute segments, and then answer questions from the attendees. SOE members and Epicenter representatives present will score the pitches on aspects such as: business model, market validation, product or service and team. Then, while attendees break to enjoy a reception outside of the theatre, representatives from The Marston Group will tally the scores. The group will re-convene inside the theatre, and a $10,000 cash prize will be awarded to the winner at the end of the event.
