Do you have a product or idea you are looking to start? The New Braunfels Economic Development Corporation (NBEDC) is hosting a “Pitch Tab” evening event for entrepreneurs to pitch a product or idea at Downtown Social on Wednesday, September 26 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.

Pitch Tab is a chance for 10 participants to give a 90-second pitch about their idea or project to an audience. The audience will ultimately select the idea/projects for first, second and third place. Winners will receive a cash prize. There will also be three panelists and a moderator that can ask questions and provide feedback to each of the participants.

“Our Economic Development Strategic Plan identified the entrepreneurial sector as the missing piece in our business ecosystem. We know that 80% of participants in surveys rate New Braunfels as a great place to start a business. Pitch Tab is a great way to engage a culture of innovation,” said Chester Jenke, NBEDC Vice President of Economic Development.

Downtown Social is located at 386 W. San Antonio Street. Pitch Tab is limited to 10 participants.
