Southern Maryland Entrepreneurs / small business owners! Join SMIT and the Startup Maryland STRT1UP Roadshow to pitch your technology concept, prototype, product or service innovation.

Since 2012, Startup Maryland has roamed the state celebrating entrepreneurs and giving them the opportunity to video tape their pitch on the Startup Maryland STRT1UP Roadshow pitch bus. Here's how it works: Entrepreneurs register to pitch at https://startupmd.typeform.com/to/cMTP0f, then prepare and practice practice practice a 3 minute pitch. When the bus arrives, entrepreneurs enter the bus where a video studio has been set up to capture thier pitch. Pitches are then edited and ready for viewing! Pitches are judged by a panel of expert serial entrepreneurs, investors and economic development officers and compete for the opportunity to be selected to pitch at other state-wide events such as TEDCO's Annual Entrepreneur Expo and other prizes.
