Ivy League Pitch Bowl
Harvard vs. Yale - Boston Harbor
FRIDAY PITCH COMPETITION
Come support your school the evening before THE GAME when we take the rivalry from the gridiron to the shark tank! The Ivy League Pitch Bowl brings together student and alumni founders and investors, for an evening of startup pitches and high-yield networking.
The Matchup
Taking the stage are two former Ivy League gridiron competitors turned tech founders. Elite student-athletes bring an unmatched work ethic, extreme coachability, and a refusal to lose—the exact traits required to survive the early-stage founder grind and build venture-scale companies.
🔴 Brock Locnikar (Harvard) — Founder of Ruxia
🔵 Mason Shipp (Yale) — Founder of Recruit Fit Engine
Both founders will have 5 minutes to pitch their companies to a panel of alumni representing CEOs, angel investors, and entrepreneurial ecosystem leaders from both universities.
