About the event
In response to a Your Big Idea
After careful review, 14 ideas have been identified as finalists. Students, staff and faculty members will pitch their ideas to the Penn community on Thursday, April 25, from 4:30-6:00 pm in Bodek Lounge in Houston Hall.
Each finalist will have three minutes to present their idea. Audience members will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite pitches in real-time, and a panel of judges made up of faculty and students will select winning ideas to receive pilot funding and support next fall.
Don’t miss this important event. Space is limited, so register today. Light refreshments will be served.
