Join the Polsky Center for the final Quick Pitch event of the school year and prepare for Shark Tank's campus visit this June.
Event Details
Please join us for this special UChicago Innovation Fest Quick Pitch event. This will be a great opportunity to practice your pitches before the NVC/SNVC/CNVC Finals. Casting members for ABC's Shark Tank will be visiting UChicago's campus on June 14 to hear pitches from any start-up with a UChicago affiliation (i.e., must be a current UChicago student, faculty, staff and/or alum), so this Quick Pitch event will be chance to practice your pitch and get feedback before pitching in front of the Shark Tank crew on June 14. Polsky Quick Pitches are a monthly forum for those with business ideas to pitch to their peers, get immediate feedback, and ask for any help they might need. Pitches are short (2 minutes) and allow enough time to explain what the idea is, why you're interested in it, and what you need help with. Every presenter walks away with handwritten feedback, suggestions from the audience, and offers to help.
