The INCubatoredu Entrepreneur and Enterprise students gave their business pitches to a row of “sharks” at FINAL PITCH NIGHT on Thursday, May 15 in the Rock Island High School Auditorium.
Five entrepreneur teams vied for three awards: Best Pitch Award, Best Business Potential Award, and Best Business Model Award:
- Take Over - is a clothing brand that's affordable with quality material that also promotes mental health awareness.
- Cloudserts - Shoe insoles for athletes that are eco-friendly.
- The ATS - The Automatic Turn Signal is a device people can plug into their car that will turn their signal on for them so they don't forget.
- QCFashion - An app where people can schedule to have someone come style them, sell their clothes, organize their closets, and more!
- Swaver - A product you can put in your toilet to help save water and reduce your water bill.
Swaver will have their name engraved on the award plaques to be displayed in the INCubatoredu Entrepreneur and Enterprise Classroom. A video of their pitch presentation will also be submitted to the national INCubatoredu Pitch Competition. The team also received $5,000 in startup cash to further their venture.
