About the Event
We continue the BGV Pitch Tour into Austin on November 17th. We will be coming to Austin to hold a pitch competition in partnership with PIMCO and the assistance of our 6 Change Agents who are local business owners who are working on elevating the local ecosystem for Black and Brown founders.
A BGV Pitch Competition is like ‘Shark Tank’ mixed with the elements of a classic “Rent Party.” At a BGV pitch program, the audience decides who the winner is through Raisify.co, our voting platform, with their dollars. The winner is determined by the number of votes, not the dollar amount raised.
The prizes for the pitch competition are:
1st place: $10k
2nd place: $6k
3rd place: $2k
As well as other non-monetary prizes to enhance their business.
Come out, hang out with the BGV team and local Change Agents. Watch and support the local founders pitching, network with other business owners and possible investors, and enjoy light refreshments. This is an event you do not want to miss.
Other activities to be announced.
