VSEDC’s inaugural Grand Pitch Competition 2024 was a resounding success we want to continue. Presenting businesses received real-time industry feedback from entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and finance professionals to win cash prizes the size of microloans ranging from $10,000 for third place up to $25,000 for first place.

Access to capital is a major barrier to entrepreneurs from at-risk areas. This Giving Tuesday and through December, help us raise the bar for VSEDC’s Grand Pitch Competition 2025 to create larger and more impactful prizes.

Our Goal? Raise $110,000 for 2025 Grand Pitch Winners!
