Pitch Contest: Student Entrepreneur Offices in the Sprague Center

Are you a student entrepreneur looking for dedicated space to grow your venture?

The Sprague Center for Entrepreneurship is inviting students to pitch for one of nine available Student Entrepreneur Offices. Selected students will receive office space for the Fall 2026 semester and become part of a collaborative community focused on innovation, venture growth, and peer support.

During the pitch contest, students will have three minutes to present their venture and explain how they would contribute as an active partner in building the Bryant innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem. Creativity and visual aids are encouraged.

When preparing your pitch, students should clearly describe their active venture and the opportunity it addresses. Feel free to use the NABC framework to guide your presentation: outline your Need (the gap or demand your venture addresses), your Approach to addressing it, the Benefits (what makes your venture valuable) and Costs (resources, time, or trade-offs involved), and your Competition. Your pitch should be 3 minutes, followed by 2 minutes of questions from the judges, and can include slides or visuals.

In addition to information about your venture, explain how you will actively contribute to the entrepreneurship community. For example, you might highlight consistent use of the Student Entrepreneur Office, supporting alumni visits, participating in Board of Trustee visits or Open Houses, engaging with Admitted Students Day, or collaborating with fellow student entrepreneurs.

Judges will consider both your venture's potential and your commitment to building the Bryant innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem.
