Calling all founders, dreamers and social entrepreneurs
How will YOU build a better world through media and technology? Founders and would-be entrepreneurs can pitch their big ideas to a panel of business-launching experts. We’ll invest up to $25,000 in each of two ideas.
Slow pokes need not apply. Be ready to run. If you’re a finalist, you’ll bring your idea and present it live before judges and the audience at We Media Miami ‘10.
Even if you’re not a finalist, come watch the competition to start the next big thing.
We Media PitchIt! begins with a simple goal: We want to find the best start-ups and help launch them with advice from funders, investors, corporations, fellow entrepreneurs, attendees and media. We’re open to commercial and non-profit ideas.
We’ve created a platform for seed-stage companies to take center stage.
Slots are limited, so apply early.
1. Enter the We Media PitchIt! Challenge. If you’re a finalist you’ll pitch your idea live at We Media Miami ‘10 before the leaders, innovators and investors of the connected society. A panel of judges will select the two best ideas – one commercial, one non-profit. We’ll invest up to $25,000 in each to help the founders turn their ideas into reality. We’ve partnered with Ashoka’s Changemakers, a global network of social entrepreneurs, to help us select the finalists.
