About Event

Join us for December's Get Seeded Pitch Night, hosted by the UConn Connecticut Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation (CCEI). These pitch nights showcase student entrepreneurs presenting their innovative ideas and competing for seed funding, with the chance to turn their concepts into reality.

Why Attend?

  • ​Watch UConn students pitch their groundbreaking ideas and see the future of entrepreneurship unfold.

  • ​As an attendee, you have the unique opportunity to vote for your favorite pitch, influencing which ventures receive $$$.

  • ​Connect with like-minded individuals, potential collaborators, and future leaders in the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

  • ​Be part of a community that fosters and supports the next generation of entrepreneurs.

​How To Attend

​We are offering two ways to attend: virtually, or at our in person watch party in Storrs! When you RSVP, please select which location you'll be joining us from. We will have pizza and soft drinks at our watch party and you'll still be able to vote and ask questions.

​📍 The location for the watch party is CCEI Storrs, located in Suite 121 in the UConn School of Business.

​The Event

​Students that are selected to pitch have an opportunity to earn up to $1,000 in seed funding for their idea as well as support from other students who may be interested in joining their business venture.

​Each team has 5 minutes to pitch, followed by 3 minutes of Q&A. After all pitches, attendees vote to determine which teams receive $500, $750 or $1000 in seed funding.

​Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur, student, or someone passionate about innovation, your presence and vote can make a difference. Learn more about this program at ccei.uconn.edu/getseeded.
