About this Event
Join us for the Vibe Madness Showcase, the final round of a fast-paced startup competition celebrating Wisconsin builders using AI and low-code tools to bring new software ideas to life.
Hosted as part of the 2026 FIRE Consortium Event Series, Vibe Madness challenges founders to move from idea → prototype → pitch in just a few weeks using modern AI development tools.
On April 7, the Top 8 startups from across Wisconsin will take the stage to demo what they built and pitch their vision in front of judges and a live audience.
Come see what happens when creativity, entrepreneurship, and AI-powered building collide.
What You'll See
- Live demos from the Top 8 startup ideas
- Founders showcasing apps, platforms, and software built with modern AI tools
- Judges evaluating each team on innovation, market potential, and execution
- Audience energy as the competition narrows to the winners
- Networking with founders, builders, students, and startup supporters
These projects started as simple ideas only weeks ago. Now they’re real working prototypes competing for $8,600 in prize money.
