What is Sunshine Enterprises’ Pitch Competition?

Sunshine Enterprises supports small business owners in underinvested communities at our highly anticipated annual Pitch Competition! Over the past nine years, our event has attracted hundreds of attendees, either participating in person, via Zoom or tuning in through Facebook Live.
Every year, our Community Business Academy alumni are invited to participate in the competition. Once finalists are selected, they are paired with a mentor to refine their pitch for the competition. The finalists then present their pitch in-person to a panel of judges for a chance to win a share of over $20,000 in cash prizes.

Since 2016, Sunshine Enterprises has awarded over $70,000 in cash plus prizes.

Prizes

Award amounts are subject to increase based on final sponsorship contributions.
