GET EXCITED ABOUT IDEAFUNDING!
Hello TENWESTers!
It's only three weeks 'til TENWEST and if you're not hyperventilating about it yet, don't worry. WE GOT YOU!
The stakes are high for the biggest TENWEST ever, but nowhere is that more true than on the main stage at IdeaFunding!
After 130 applicants, two qualifying rounds, and intense pitch training, only 25 teams remain to pitch for over $50K in prizes.
You'll see pitches from companies in tech, fashion and everything in between, so don't miss IdeaFunding at the historic Rialto Theatre on March 27th!
We're excited to feature out five main stage finalists today!
Ethereal Co
Ethereal Co is the creator of the world's first sunrise alarm blackout curtain, The SunrAIse. This patented design uses lights integrated into a window covering to help night shift workers sync their circadian rhythm to their schedule with a personal sunrise no matter the time of day.
BreatheEV
BreatheEV is committed to pioneering the future of electric vehicle charging. They provide fully managed EV charging solutions with a reservation system that is more accessible and efficient for residential and commercial properties.
Legion Platforms
Legion Platforms is a web-based company creating 3D online games that are accessible to users with slow computers, poor internet, and devices that can't handle large downloads. Their in-house developers use cutting-edge technology to push the boundaries in the gaming industry.
Suncliffe
Suncliffe offers an Arizona gin that highlights native botanicals and plant species. Their gin is vapor-infused in custom copper stills and non-chill filtered, resulting in a unique Southwest twist on the classic spirit.
