Want to watch a real live business pitch competition?  Right here in Bennington??

7/21/2015

Fresh Tracks Capital, the venture capital firm backing Ello and other highly successful Vermont ventures, is organizing their second annual Road Pitch event, in which investors from all over Vermont travel the state to hear business pitches by local entrepreneurs.  There is a cash award for the best pitch and additional funding potential for the best ideas, so this is real entrepreneurial financing in real life.

Even better, for this year's event the general public is invited to attend and watch the actual pitches, which should be very exciting.  The event will be followed by a networking reception.

I sat in on the judging for the initial round last week, and I can tell you that it was a very fun and exciting experience.  This is well worth your time.

The event will be held on Monday, August 3 at 5:00pm, at the Deane Carriage Barn at Bennington College.  Check out the event flyer below.
