Please join us Monday, November 9th, when the DALI Lab and the DEN Network are excited to host “The Pitch: F15”. (Loew Auditorium 7-9 PM).  This is a unique opportunity for members of the Dartmouth community to pitch their ideas. Winners receive support  from DALI and DEN to design, develop and formulate their ideas into working prototypes and business plans.  Faculty, students and staff from Arts and Sciences, Thayer, Tuck, and Geisel will have two minutes each to pitch their big ideas.  We are not looking for business plans, but rather for truly creative ideas with big impact.  

Pitches range in scope and focus. They don't need to be tech ideas, but we are looking for ideas that are novel, well-presented, creative and innovative, and have potential for impact.

Pitches begin promptly at 7 PM in Loew Auditorium.  Twenty ideas will be pitched in two minute intervals. After the pitches, audience members and judges vote. The judges choices receive $3000, $2000, or $1000 for first, second and third place respectively. The audience’s choice receives $2000. All winners can get design and development help from the Neukom DALI Lab (value of up to $15,000). A pitch clinic before the event will be scheduled to help people develop their pitch. We are excited to see the great ideas that come forward in November! For more information or to register to attend this free event, click here
