Rock County Jumpstart Accelerator Pitch

Our second cohort of the Jumpstart Accelerator is just as great as the first. The participants pitch their business and the top three pitches win grant awards in the amount of $3500, $2500, and $1500.

Competing businesses are:

Valenica Riley: Virtual Reality Arcade
Lucas Scott: Mobile Barbershop
Robert Clark: PressREC Media (videography)
Mikal Cooks: Health and wellness nonprofit focusing on racial disparities affecting Black women
Joseph Purnell: Can Do Crew (home remodeling business that works with veterans and formerly incarcerated individuals)
Cassandra & Isaiah: Elite Rental Properties (affordable, short-term rental properties)
This event will feature a buffet of Southern style soul food: fried chicken, rib tips, collard greens, mac and cheese, cornbread, and banana pudding.

This is a free event and it’s open to the public. Registration is required.
