Come meet the entrepreneurs in CapeTide’s Fall 2026 Intensive as they reach the midpoint of our 12-week program.

Progress Pitch is a lower-pressure practice round before entrepreneurs take the stage for their Final Presentations in December. Each entrepreneur will have just three minutes to share:

• Their elevator pitch
• What they learned from their customer surveys
• Their SMART goals for the six weeks leading up to Final Presentations

Before and after the pitches, entrepreneurs will be tabling, giving attendees a chance to meet them and learn more about their businesses.

CapeTide strengthens Cape Cod’s economy by supporting small businesses and expanding access to entrepreneurial education, resources, and a community of champions.

Our 12-week Intensive combines business education, customer discovery, goal-setting, and hands-on support from a team of three volunteer mentors for each entrepreneur.

The pitches aren't supposed to be perfect yet. Progress Pitch is a chance for entrepreneurs to practice, share what they’ve learned, and commit to what they want to accomplish before December.

The event is free. Whether you're supporting a friend or family member, mentoring a CapeTide entrepreneur, or simply interested in seeing the program in action, we'd love to have you join us.
