2024 Recap!

Thirty entrepreneurial teams pitched their innovative solutions to a panel of judges at the LionCage Pitch Competition held at Penn State Great Valley on November 8. Competing for prize money and expert advice, each team had five minutes to present their companies, addressing challenges from healthy food access to navigation for the visually impaired. The event, a collaboration between Invent Penn State LaunchBoxes, the Chester County United Way, and the Chester County Economic Development Council’s i2n, provided participants with coaching, networking opportunities, exposure to funders, and insights from industry leaders.
