Get ready for the Quick Pitch


JA 2017 Quick Pitch Competition

The Quick Pitch is a business plan competition where each student company has the opportunity to earn an additional $100 of investment capital. 


Each company will deliver a 4 minute presentation on their business concept, and present their written business plan before a panel of judges during the scheduled meeting held on December 4th, 5th, 6th, or 7th. The panel of judges will evaluate the teams' ability to present on their ideas, and the feasibility of their business plan. Once the judges have observed the presentation, they will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide live feedback on integral changes the team should consider while fine-tuning their business plan. 

After the discussion takes place, based on a set criteria and thoughtful consideration, judges will jointly decide if the company should be awarded, $0, $50, $75, or the full $100.  Judges will then report back to JA the amount they awarded to the team and JA will deposit the funds into the teams' bank accounts. 

***Students, remember to dress for success and arrive early!***
