On April 8–9, 2021, we’re inviting all student-entrepreneurs and recent alumni founders to "Pitch," a competition for Black student-founders.
Showcase your business, win prizes, and build relationships with investors and other entrepreneurs. This event is organized by Duke University and North Carolina Central University. Applications are due January 29, 2021! Update: Registration is no longer available because the registration deadline has passed.
It's time to launch your business! Apply now and take advantage of virtual workshops, business coaching, cash prizes and a special fireside chat with the following entrepreneurs: Grant Hill (Duke alumnus, retired NBA player and co-owner of the Atlanta Hawks), Fred Whitfield (NCCU Law alumnus; president, vice chairman, alternate governor, and minority owner of the Charlotte Hornets), and Charles Whitfield (NCCU alumnus; co-founder of Hidden Beach Records; 2020 inductee in the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame; and manager [community relations] at Lowe's Corporation).
