The Wyoming Technology Business Center (WTBC) invites the public to virtually attend the Microbial Ecology Collaborative Startup Launchpad (MECSL) Pitch Day event Thursday, March 26, at 12:55 p.m.

The event will be accessible on the University of Wyoming’s StartupTree website at uwyo.startuptree.co/event/43f1a2f2-2402-47f0-91d2-b6f6a7805ba8.

This statewide entrepreneurship platform will disburse $25,000 in capital -- funded by the National Science Foundation and Wyoming’s Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) -- to innovative Wyoming startups.

In response to and concern around the evolving novel coronavirus COVID-19 situation, the MECSL Pitch Day event has been modified to be a completely virtual public event via Zoom and moderated by WTBC staff. Each team will have 30 minutes for its presentation and question-and-answer session, with additional questions from the audience through the chat feature, if time permits.
