<P><SPAN><STRONG><SPAN>What is Flash Pitching?</SPAN></STRONG></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN>Great question, Flash Pitching is something we coined here at the Incubators; it forces founders to hone in on the core of their company's message in 2 minutes. We have seen that this method keeps founders</SPAN><SPAN>concise, and effective; in turn keeping i</SPAN><SPAN>nvestors engaged. Ultimately this allows the investors</SPAN><SPAN>to analyze the core of the founder's solutions and provide valuable and actionable feedback.</SPAN></P>
