Entrepreneurship seems to be on the rise… Our region especially seems to be filled with talented people with brilliant ideas, and that’s why so many entrepreneurial pitch competitions happen all across the state + Upstate.
Speaking of entrepreneurial pitch competitions, there’s one happening this Saturday at Furman University – the Paladin Pitch Competition. If you want to hear ideas from some students, head to McAlister Auditorium from 9-11 a.m. to watch six student teams from Furman pitch their ideas. The winner takes home $10,000 in funding. Plus? Attendees get a free breakfast.
