Please join us on Saturday, October 15, at 1:00 pm PT for the Defy SoCal HealthRight 360 Community Business Pitch Competition & Graduation!
What's it all about?
Business pitch competition and graduations are the culminating events for EITs as they complete Defy's rigorous CEO YNL program. During these events, EITs present their business ideas in several rounds of a Shark Tank-style competition to panels of volunteer judges. Judges ask clarifying questions, provide feedback to strengthen the business concepts and pitches, and evaluate the overall presentations with their fellow judges to select competition winners. The event also includes icebreaker and empathy-building exercises designed to create an inclusive and accepting community. At the end of the day, five winning pitches are selected from the group in an awards ceremony, followed by a cap and gown graduation ceremony in which EITs are awarded a Certificate of Entrepreneurship issued by the Drucker School of Management.
This is an in-person event, and in order to keep everyone safe, all volunteers will need to show proof of Covid vaccination. Masks will be required of all participants during the event. Acceptable forms of vaccination proof can include: vaccination card (can be a copy or photo on the phone), or a digital record provided by a state agency.
Please reach out to Bree ([email protected]) with any questions, and we'll see you soon!
