Black Female Founders and Technicolor DC are teaming up with the Multicultural Media, Telecom and Internet Council to present the inaugural MMTC Capital Pitch Competition. And if you’re part of a multicultural or woman-led startup, there’s still time to apply.
Five early-stage startups will ultimately be selected to pitch in front of conference attendees and judges at MMTC’s 2016 Access to Capital and Telecom Policy Conference on July 13 and 14. The top prize is $5,000, and all competitors will get access to “free business consulting, mentoring, and partnership development,” too.
The only catch is that you’ve got to register soon — the registration period ends July 6.
Read on here for more on the competition, pitch guidelines and registration info.
