Innovation & Entrepreneurship Council

The Innovation & Entrepreneurship Council brings together start-up companies, small business entrepreneurs, educational institutions and funding organizations supporting entrepreneurship.  The program recognizes the immense importance of innovation and entrepreneurship in our region and works to enhance the business environment that supports this vital economic growth initiative for our region. 

Introduced in 2019, our signature event – Pitch Stop – brings together start-up companies and small business entrepreneurs who “pitch” their business proposals to a panel of industry experts.

Congratulations to Pitch Stop IV winner Dome Audio!

Pitch Stop IV was held at Grounds for Sculpture on Thursday, February 17. Three startups were selected from a pool of 24 applicants to pitch to a panel of judges including Sean O’Sullivan of SOSV, Susan Goldsmith from Golden Seeds, and Dan Herscovici of Edison Partners.
