Pitch Black is a dynamic conference designed to fuel entrepreneurship and elevate diverse voices across the Midwest. This signature event features prominent speakers, a business exposition, and a highly competitive pitch competition. The competition is uniquely crafted to provide a platform for emerging BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color), immigrant, and refugee entrepreneurs to present their innovative business ideas.Participants will compete for a grand prize of up to $24,500 and access to over $66,000 in additional technical assistance, including marketing, legal, and accounting services.
Pitch Black is more than a competition—it is a powerful initiative focused on advancing entrepreneurship, creating access to resources, and building stronger, more inclusive communities. The conference connects emerging entrepreneurs with potential investors, mentors, and critical business services to help them scale and thrive.
