About the PITCH IT! GBC Competition

The PITCH IT! GBC Competition is designed to provide seed funding to support aspiring entrepreneurs in developing and pitching their business/social innovation ideas. Participants have an opportunity to win a portion of the $10,000 prize fund. Two streams of the PITCH IT! GBC competition will occur simultaneously:

Stream 1: For-profit business and

Stream 2: Social innovation enterprises

Social Innovation enterprises can include a not-for-profit or for-profit entity. In addition, for-profit businesses can apply for both streams if their product offering covers social innovation.  Applications can be submitted by solo-entrepreneurs or multi-founder teams.  Prizes will be awarded one per business/social innovation pitched and not per person within a team. 

The prize pot will be split in the following way:

Stream 1 – For-profit Business

Winner – $2,500

Second – $1,500

Third – $1,000

Stream 2 – Social Innovation

Winner – $2,500
