New Orleans Entrepreneur Week will host the IDEApitch competition at 4 p.m. Friday, March 31 at Generations Hall. Three competitors from the Idea Village’s VILLAGEx accelerator program will pitch their companies to a panel of investors and startup founders.
The 12th annual NOEW is happening March 27 through April 1 at various locations citywide.
“IDEApitch is about venture and investment readiness,” said Jon Atkinson, CEO of the Idea Village, the nonprofit accelerator that produces New Orleans Entrepreneur Week and the VILLAGEx program. “The entrepreneurs who participate in IDEApitch have founded and scaled startups that we believe are ready for additional investment.”
The three IDEApitch finalists are Bomb Ass Fro, Glass Half Full and iCAN Technologies.
