Mic Drop: The Perfect Pitch is a high‑energy, hands‑on workshop designed to help founders communicate their ideas with clarity, confidence, and impact. Led by Quinn Valentine, Director of the CIE, this session equips entrepreneurs with the tools they need to stand out.
 
Participants will learn how to structure a compelling pitch, craft a memorable story, and clearly articulate the value of their business to judges, investors, partners, and customers. The workshop emphasizes practical techniques, real‑time feedback, and confidence‑building strategies founders can immediately apply in competitions, meetings, and real‑world conversations.
 
And the momentum doesn’t stop there.
Immediately following the workshop, attendees are invited to put their new skills to the test in a fast‑paced Elevator Pitch Competition from 6:30–7:30 PM. 
Participants will have the chance to deliver a 60‑second pitch for a shot at cash prizes:
