$10,000 student pitch contest
With a $10,000 cash prize up for grabs, 21 teams of Montclair State students will pitch innovative product and service ideas during our fourth annual pitch contest. This year, any student at Montclair State was eligible to apply to be in the contest, greatly increasing the number of teams in contention. More than 50 teams were in contention, and now 21 teams will pitch for the $10,000 prize on May 3.
Come and be part of the excitement, and cheer on these student entrepreneurs! (If you can't stay the whole time, come to whatever you can.)
