About this Event
PitchUp 2026
This is one of Startup Garage's biggest events of the year - a can't-miss night packed with connection and opportunity. Twelve Calvin University students take the stage to pitch their business ideas in just two minutes each. No notes. No slides. Just their idea and the clock.
Each student competing has a shot at walking away with capital to bring their idea to life.
It's not just for the founders on stage - everyone in the audience has a chance to win exciting door prizes and raffles.
Come meet the founders, investors, and innovators shaping what's next. Be there, and bring a friend!
