Description

This event is currently SOLD OUT. Please contact us to be placed on waitlist if you are interested in attending.  


Join Us for the Entrepreneur Academy (EA) 2025 Final Pitch Event & 'Most Promising Venture' Awards Ceremony!

Two years ago, the Chamber's Regional Innovation Center opened its doors with a mission to create a dynamic environment where professionals, entrepreneurs, and new and emerging businesses could connect, collaborate, and grow, while community members gained access to low-barrier, career-enhancing training. Fast forward to today, that vision has flourished into a vibrant hub of innovation, opportunity, and impact for Eastern Connecticut.

Enjoy hors d’oeuvres as we celebrate two milestones: the two-year anniversary of the Regional Innovation Center and the graduation of the EA 2025 cohort!

Be part of an exciting evening where the brightest entrepreneurial minds from the Academy present their innovative ventures in front of local business leaders, investors, and the community.

At this public event, YOU have the power to help shape the future by voting for the Most Promising Ventures! Dozens of entrepreneurs are competing for three cash prizes, showcasing bold ideas and creative solutions that could transform industries. 

Why Attend?

  • Discover cutting-edge ideas and innovations from tomorrow’s ventures.
  • Participate in the excitement by casting your vote for the startup with the most potential.
