Pitch in the Round
16 regional teams will fight it out to see who is the last entrepreneur standing. To add a bit of Fort Worth flare we have eliminated technology and the entrepreneurs will be pitching in 360 degrees armed with only their wit. Round 1 will be will be a 5 min pitch in 360 degrees with no supportive media. Round 2 will be aggressive Q&A by a VIP Panel. It will also be a crowd favorite elimination round. Round 3 will be short, 1 minute elevator pitches from the last 4 entrepreneurs, crowd favorite takes home to purse.
