Don’t worry about the white paper. You can make your pitch by vodcast.
Southeast Michigan entrepreneurs and industry experts will serve as judges of “1,000 pitches,” a competition launched last week by the University of Michigan Center for Entrepreneurship.
Contest organizers seek the eponymous 1,000 pitches via streaming video from UM employees or students with a startup proposal for a business or nonprofit organization by Oct. 5.
Proposals should be no more than three minutes long, and will undergo two sets of reviews. First will be a group of student judges and then a set of focus group panels with business-community experts, said Thomas Zurbuchen, professor of aerospace engineering and director of the Center for Entrepreneurship.
Winning pitches in each of seven business categories — environmental, health, technology, local business, global business, social entrepreneurship or “green campus” proposals for UM — receive $1,000 in seed money for their proposals. The Center expects to announce winners in mid-October.
Awards are sponsored by Ann Arbor-based RPM Ventures, MacBeedon Partners L.L.C., and Arboretum Ventures Inc., as well as MPowered Entrepreneurship, the organization for student entrepreneurship at UM.
