Pitch Madness is a live, bracket-style pitch competition that encapsulates the excitement of March!

Participants will compete in teams of two. Teams receive two random words and two minutes to create a startup idea and pitch it. Judges decide who advances through the bracket until one team cuts down the net as Pitch Madness Champion.

No slides. No preparation. No prior idea required.

Pitch Madness is a great opportunity to sharpen your pitching skills, meet creative peers from across campus, and create a business for our IdeaBounce® on March 23rd.

Open to students from all WashU schools. Only 16 competitor spots available (first-come, first-served). You can sign up individually or as a team. If registering as a team, both members must sign up individually and leave a note of your desired teammate. Additional sign-ups will be added to the waitlist.

Not pitching? Come watch, cheer, and fill out a bracket for a chance to win a Skandalaris Center prize package. Register Here.
