Startup Corps students from around the city of Philadelphia will gather at Science Leadership Academy on Thursday night for the Startup Corps 1st Annual Pitch Competition. Students will present their ideas for products and services that improve people’s lives. The event is open to students, parents and school administrators.
In its May 2011 issue, Fast Company ran an article entitled “The United States of Innovation”. In the article, Startup Corps was named one of Fast Company‘s ”bold ideas and brilliant urbanites who are helping to build the cities of America’s future”. To see the article, pick up this month’s issue, or view it on their website here. (and make sure to view the illustrations of our student projects on PA!)
Startup Corps students had an opportunity to practice their business pitches with Peirce College President James J. Mergiotti. Read more about the visit and watch a video on Peirce’s blog, Peirce Connections
