Two local entrepreneurs will be representing our area in Green Bay in a few weeks at the NEW Launch Alliance Regional Pitch Competition. They advanced after taking first and second prizes at the Accelerate Sheboygan County November Pitch Competition held last Tuesday at Jake’s Café, A Lakeland University Community.
Of the seven competing entries, the first place prize of $1,500 went to Josiah Pledl, founder of Beacon, a business focused on helping individuals with disabilities find meaningful employment while assisting employers in identifying opportunities to better utilize the talents and abilities of an often-overlooked workforce.
Second place and a $1,000 prize went to Jerry Lundy, founder of AJ Washouts, and the $500 People’s Choice Award went to Tyler Rezacheck, founder of Anitmussel.
Pledl and Lundy now advance to the NEW Launch Alliance Regional Pitch Competition scheduled for Wednesday, December 2nd at Titletown Tech in Green Bay.
