Deadline to apply to Crossroads Pitch Competition: September 10

by Sep 2, 2020

In its fifth year, Crossroads Pitch Competition has become the biggest pitch competition in Indiana, attracting promising startups from across the state. This year, the event goes virtual: judges will review recorded pitches, then select a handful to compete live via Zoom on October 7. The winner takes home a $5,000 cash prize and coveted slots to pitch to Elevate Origins & Flywheel Fund. You must apply to pitch by September 10: crossroadspitch.com

We’ve substantially increased the top prize. $5K in cold hard cash is pretty sweet, and so are the follow-up connections and opportunities: the winner gets a slot to pitch to Elevate for either pre-seed ($20k) or seed ($80k) investment, and a slot to pitch Flywheel Fund for $25k.

We’ve also substantially increased our diversity of judges. Our 30 judges represent all parts of our venture, startup, and coworking communities. 50% are women, 10% are BIPOC.

We’re excited to meet the 2020 startups!
