Elevator pitch competition winners announced

Mike Ostman and Joe Richards were awarded the top prizes in the recent Elevator Pitch Competition sponsored by The Kabara Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies.

Contestants created an idea for a business or an event and had 90 seconds (the length of an average elevator ride) to convince a panel of judges that the idea was a worthwhile investment. Judges considered the feasibility and creativity of the idea, as well as the enthusiasm and professionalism of the presentation.

The Kabara Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies will be sponsoring another Elevator Pitch Competition early second semester.
