Women Founders Pitch: Fueling the Next Wave of Female Innovation

Join us for the Women Founders Pitch, a dynamic showcase where visionary female founders present their game-changing startups. This competition, hosted by the Orange County Women’s Business Center in collaboration with the Orange County Inland Empire SBDC Network, offers a unique opportunity to witness the future of entrepreneurship.

Selected finalists will pitch live for a chance to win a $5,000 cash prize and gain exposure in front of a panel of esteemed investors. This event is more than just a pitch—it's a celebration of female-driven innovation and the power of diverse perspectives. Don’t miss the chance to support and be inspired by these trailblazing women as they take their businesses to the next level.

While only up to 5 presenters will be selected to pitch at the event, all applicants will be aligned with an OC WBC consultant and will be invited to attend the event. Your consultant will provide personalized guidance on your submission, helping you refine your pitch and enhance your chances of being chosen.
