Spark's purpose is to help entrepreneurs grow their businesses. All attendees of Spark will have the opportunity to build their network, connect with important advisers and investors, and find new resources for growth. Additionally there are several exposure opportunities for entrepreneurs at Spark including the chance to pitch your business in front of an esteemed panel, or participate in our Entrepreneur Expo.
Spark will provide 10-12 entrepreneurs the opportunity to present their business concepts in 5 minutes at the Spark Pitch Sessions (Spark Agenda). Those interested in presenting must submit an online application for review and selection by the Spark adviser committee. During the sessions, a panel made up of successful entrepreneurs, angel investors, venture consultants and experienced advisers will ask the entrepreneurs questions, give advice and then tap into the collective intelligence of the audience. Each entrepreneur will benefit from feedback and guidance from the advisers and audience.

Entrepreneurs who are selected for the Pitch Sessions may also apply to be a part of the Expo, which will give the entrepreneurs a chance to introduce themselves to advisers, investors and other professionals immediately before pitch sessions.
