Peak Pitch 2008 at Windham Mountain

Tuesday, March 11, 2008

8:00 – 2:00 PM

FREE


High Peaks Venture Partners in collaboration with Phillips Lytle, Nixon Peabody and Duane Morris is hosting the Second Annual Peak Pitch where entrepreneurs get to pitch investors, CEO's and Venture Capitalists as they ride the chairlift together.  Here's how it works: Entrepreneurs pitch during the 6 minute ride to the summit and receive feedback along the way.  Then ski down and repeat!  Following a morning of "pitch and ski" lunch will be served where additional time can be spent networking and following up with those contacts on the chairlift.
