Grow Your Startup
Our annual Flyer Pitch Competition is sponsored by UD's L. William Crotty Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership and the Greater West Dayton Incubator in partnership with PNC Bank and The Entrepreneurs' Center.
Flyer Pitch awards more than $150,000 in cash prizes and more than $50,000 of in-kind prizes during the competition. Its legacy includes more than 80 new ventures that have been launched as a result of the competition with more than $24 million in follow-on capital raised by those businesses.
During the course of the competition, participants will have the opportunity to enhance their own skills, as well as strengthen their venture through training, mentorship and feedback from expert judges. This is not only intended to help finalists prepare for the pitch but to ultimately provide entrepreneurs with the hands-on support to launch their new venture successfully.
The competition is open to all UD students, faculty/staff, alumni and members of the local community. Visit the Flyer Pitch website for additional details and deadlines.
