SUMMARY:The Bean Path Pitch Competition
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Bean Path Pitch Competition for an action-packed event where bold founders will hit the stage to pitch their big ideas\, compete for cash prizes\, and connect with Mississippi’s vibrant entrepreneurial community. \nWhether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur\, a seasoned business leader\, or an investor scouting your next great prospect\, you’ll find energy\, innovation\, and inspiration in every pitch. Come for the ideas\, stay for the connections\, and be part of the movement shaping Mississippi’s future. \n\n\nLocation: The Maker Space\, 451 North Gallatin\, Jackson\, MS 39203\nTime: 10am – 1pm \n\n\nThis event is part of Mississippi’s statewide pitch network\, powered by Innovate Mississippi and the Mississippi Small Business Development Center Network. Together\, they provide two pitch pathways—one for high-growth startups and another for traditional small businesses. If a founder’s venture shows strong high-growth potential\, they may even earn an invitation to join the CoBuilders Accelerator. \nThis project is being supported\, in whole or in part\, by federal award number SSBCI-21034-0003 awarded to Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) by the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
