Elevator Pitch Application Due 2/5 at Midnight

We are thrilled to introduce the first-ever Alumni Track to the Carolina Challenge! All UNC alums are eligible to enter and compete alongside UNC students, staff, and faculty. However, alumni ventures must be early-stage without having received external seed funding to date. See rules.

Also in our 2012 toolbelt is a new prize money structure. Instead of just competing in your track, you'll also be competing with others in your cohort (undergrads, graduates, and faculty/staff/alumni) as to facilitate a more equitable distribution of prize money among entrants. See the new structure

Last but not least, we will be adding a networking and coaching component to the elevator pitch round and semifinals round. This means more time for you to interact with judges and get their valuable feedback on your idea/business plan. More to come on this later! See the full 2012 Competition Schedule
