Accelerate is a civic pitch competition which gives individuals the chance to win seed money to help launch their idea. Five presenters pitch in each of the six categories. A panel of judges select one finalist in each category. The six finalists pitch again to the full audience, which votes on the winner.
The winner receives $5,000 and the remaining five finalists each receive $2,000. The Cleveland Foundation Technovation competition is awarding $3,500 to the top technology idea.
Tickets include access to all the category competitions, Technovation, and the finalist competition. You’ll also get access to the recorded pitches.
