Defy Ventures provides carefully selected, ambitious men and women with criminal histories with life-changing entrepreneurship, leadership, and career opportunities through the Entrepreneurs-in-Training (EIT) program.

Celebrate and provide feedback to formerly-incarcerated entrepreneurs-in-training at the Defy Tri-State Bootcamp Pitch Showcase & Graduation on Monday, June 10, 2024 from 6-8pm ET over zoom.

Volunteers will hear EITs (Entrepreneurs-in-Training) present their business pitches followed by Q&A and feedback sessions.

• This event is the culmination of the 17-week Entrepreneurship Bootcamp program.
• After the pitch showcase, Defy Entrepreneurs in Training (EITs) will receive their Certificates of Entrepreneurship issued by the Drucker School of Management at Claremont Graduate University and will be eligible to apply to our Business Accelerator program where they will develop a business plan, financial model, pitch deck, and learn how to scale their business.
