The BGV Pitch Program flips the traditional pitch experience on its head: we coach entrepreneurs, host a live crowdfunded pitch competition, then connect them to community and professionals to support them on their journey. We democratize funding by allowing the audience to vote with their dollars using the Raisify platform for the founders whose pitch they favor. Each founder has 3 minutes to pitch and a 3 minute Q&A from the audience.

Benefits of HUB Certification
Vendors who acquire HUB Certification increase exposure to business opportunities in state procurement and contracting. HUB-certified firms are listed on the state's Electronic Vendor Portal (EVP), which is used by local and state agencies, governments and institutions and the public to locate historically underutilized businesses for goods, services and construction.
Another advantage of HUB certification is the access to a variety of workshops, training sessions and mentorship programs. Connecting with professionals in the business industry helps firms learn perks of the trade while avoiding some of the issues small businesses often experience.
