The River District Association will be hosting their next “Start-Up Slam” event on Tuesday, September 26 at 6 pm at Ma’s Cakes. Start-Up Slam is modeled after a poetry slam, except it’s for business ideas. It is a community-oriented event where people share a meal, share new business ideas, make new friends, and can network.
This special Start-Up Slam has an art and creativity them for any business ideas based on some type of art or creative concept. All business ideas are still welcome.
Up to 15 participants at the event are welcome to share their ideas with the crowd (3-minute limit), and attendees will be able to vote on their favorite at the end of the evening. The top vote-getter takes home all the cash collected at the door – no strings attached. No business plans and no requirements, just the following guidelines:
- Ideas must be new business ideas (not yet established).
- Those who wish to share their idea will put their name in at the door.
- Up to 15 names will be drawn randomly to present.
- Each presenter has 3 minutes to share one idea.
