The Bright Rewired Business Plan Competition continues with the Pitch Night. Eight participants will share their exciting and inspired business concepts with the community. Each participant has passed the application round and attended the eight- week Business Planning Course with the Staunton Creative Community Fund.
The Bright Rewired Pitch Night will feature five-minute pitches from each participant. Three judges will evaluate the pitches and the business concept and have an oppor- tunity to ask questions after each pitch. The community is invited to offer suggestions and support.
The Bright Rewired business plan competition invites entrepreneurs wishing to open a business in the Downtown or Newtown districts of Staunton, Virginia to apply for grants that will be awarded up to $10,000 to open or expand a new business.
Applicants will be required to present their idea at a Public Pitch Night on May 21, submit their business plan on May 27 and attend the BRIGHT REWIRED Awards, where the grants will be awarded on June 17.
