Pitch. Win. Accelerate.

Join us at the Oxford/Lafayette Economic Development Foundation Pitch Competition in Oxford for a high-energy event where you’ll pitch your business, compete for cash prizes, and connect with Mississippi’s thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem.

This business pitch competition, powered by Innovate Mississippi and the Mississippi Small Business Development Center Network, offers two distinct pitch pathways – one for high growth startups and another for traditional small businesses.

• Traditional & Main Street Businesses (MSBDCN Track)
• High-Growth Innovation & Technology (Innovate MS Track)

Participants can apply through this single shared application and both tracks offer cash prizes, valuable exposure, and 1-1 business coaching. Only a limited number of finalists will be selected from the applicant pool and invited to pitch, however all applicants will be connected with small business development resources and invited to join the entrepreneurial community in cheering on our finalists on pitch day.

Location: Oxford Conference Center, 102 Ed Perry Blvd, Oxford, MS 38655
Time: TBD
