Submissions are now open for the Entrepreneurship & Libraries Pitch Competition: https://entrelib.org/elcpc2023/
Five libraries will be selected to compete in the May 4 (3-4pm EST) pitch competition via Zoom, and all five libraries will win funding:
1st place: $4,000 | 2nd: $2,500 | 3rd: $1,500 | 4th & 5th: $500
The audience choice award will be an additional $1,000 for one of the 5 libraries.
