  • 6/25 How Effective Is Your Elevator Pitch?

    Entrepreneurs and/or potential entrepreneurs should be fluent in their “Elevator Pitch.” Your pitch must clearly summarize who you are, what your company does and your value proposition — all in one minute or less. Depending on venue, more time can be allotted, but the same standards for clarity and content apply.

    If you’d like to improve your Elevator Pitch or create a new one, come to “Network & Know @ UConn TIP” where Donna Brooks will teach you how to craft “The Perfect Elevator Pitch.” Afterwards, you are invited to stay for networking and the opportunity to practice your “Perfect Elevator Pitch” with the other attendees.

    This event is hosted by UConn's Technology Incubation Program (TIP).  TIP is a program of the Office of the Vice President for Research, Technology Commercialization Services.
