Another amazing pitch contest is in the books.
Students from all disciplines at MCC had an opportunity to pitch their ideas, business dreams, and innovations to an esteemed panel of judges for a chance to win $3,000 in seed money. This event was made possible thanks to the Cummings Foundation. Students shared a variety of ideas and were awarded based on innovation and market opportunity.
Overall the competition was fierce, and the judges were very impressed with everyone. Congratulations to all who pitched.
