It's that time of year again for Will This Float?, one of Chattanooga's most anticipated business pitch competitions. This fast-paced event is often the first moment in the limelight for participating entrepreneurs. Each finalist gets the stage for three minutes to tell the world (including local startup leaders and potential mentors and team members) why his or her concept is awesome. Once all participants present, the audience and a panel of judges vote on the best idea. At the end of the evening, the winning entrepreneur receives a cash prize and a package of free business services to take his or her startup idea to the next level.

Your ticket includes food and drink tickets as well as the chance to boost Chattanooga's up-and-coming startups.

**This is not a Chattanooga Zoo-run event.
