About this event
The chance to win $100,000 in seed money comes to budding entrepreneurs from the U.S. Virgin Islands this year for the very first Startup Battle to be held in the territory.
Startup Battle, as the name suggests, is a competition for aspiring entrepreneurs with dreams of launching a tech-based business and for early-stage tech startups seeking to accelerate growth. Throughout the competition, top participants develop their ideas with seasoned mentors and present to active venture capitalists from all over the United States.
In the end, there is a "Final Battle” where the top five participants make their final presentations. The best idea wins, and the winning team takes all – $100,000 in investment, that is.
This year, Startup Battle VI will host its “Final Battle” event from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Oct. 27 at PRIME at Paradise Point on St. Thomas. That evening, the top five USVI finalists will make their final pitches to the Startup judges, and guests will be entertained with live performances from Pressure Busspipe and other local artists.
The judges’ panel will include Jed JohnHope, Twin City Capital General Partner; Chantel Hoheb, Virgin Islands Children’s Museum Executive Director; and Eric Sonnier, RTPark Accelerate VI Managing Director.
