Each session features 4-6 "pitches" selected from projects proposed by faculty and students who believe they have a marketable innovation. Presentations are 10-12 minutes long, followed by a 5-7 minutes of feedback with the audience. Audience is encouraged to give feedback on the technology, market and opportunity, and the overall presentation.
