The Frederick County Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to announce the semi-finalists in this year’s S.H.E. Pitch competition! S.H.E. Pitch, now in its Fifth year, is a pitch competition for female entrepreneurs designed to give businesses both in the “idea stage” and “growth stage” cash prizes, non-monetary prizes, publicity, networking opportunities and more.
A committee of eight representatives reviewed the applicant materials and were impressed by both their business concepts and their investment summaries. Semi-Finalists are now working on their slide decks and revised/refined investment summaries. These materials will be reviewed and judged and finalists will be announced on June 27th. Finalists will have the chance to compete in front of a panel of judges and live audience during S.H.E. Week.
