We’re looking for innovative generative AI solutions that can help small businesses thrive. Identify a problem that small businesses face and pitch your idea for solving it. No need for a business plan, financial statements, or marketing strategies—just your best pitch. Judges are focused on the quality of your idea, your ability to sell it, and its market potential.
