Hey UWM! Got an idea? Beginner and experienced pitchers are invited to share ideas and compete at this pitch competition co-sponsored with the UWM Black Student Cultural Center.

The Panther Pitch consists of two levels: beginner level and experienced level. The choice is up to you!

The beginner level competition has participants working closely with professionals who have created a startup business venture to develop an impactful pitch. Three winners will be selected at this level.

The experienced level competition has participants competing in a pitch competition for your venture. Afterwards, you will help entry-level entrepreneurs develop their pitches.

All UWM students are eligible to participate. Your two-minute-long pitch can win you:

  • A one-on-one meeting with an established business professional
  • A professional headshot
  • An Entrepreneur Resource Kit
  • Cocktail hour access during November’s business networking event
  • LEC Swag
