SUMMARY:Moonshot Pitch Challenge Applications Open
DESCRIPTION:We’re asking students to think beyond the classroom and pitch an idea that solves a real-world problem in 2 minutes or less. Finalists compete for a prize pool of $5\,500 during a pitch competition in front of judges and a live audience. \nAny idea can be submitted for Moonshot! Decide which category your great idea falls into: \n\nEarth: social ideas primarily focused on addressing socio-economic needs & challenges.\nOrbit: business ideas primarily focused on launching a company offering an exchange of products\, services\, or information between businesses\, or between businesses and customers.\nMoonshot: dent-in-the-universe ideas primarily focused on solving a seemingly impossible problem. This category focuses on radical solutions\, disruptive technology\, or futuristic technology.\n\nYou do not need to have every technical aspect of the product/technology figured out – nor do you need to have a business model fully developed. \nThe winner of each category will win $1\,500. There are also $500 rewards for crowd favorite and best overall pitch.
