2017 RBC EPIC Founders Pitch Day

The 2017 RBC EPIC Founders Program came to a close on August 2nd, 2017 with a Final Pitch Day. In the afternoon, each founder had the opportunity to showcase their Minimum Viable Products in a tradeshow-style setup at EPICentre. Guests were able to demo each innovation before the official pitch presentation session. Here, founders had 6 minutes to present their progress through the term and their learning outcomes to a panel of judges.

EPICentre would like to thank the following RBC EPIC Founders Final Pitch Day judges:

  • Martin Croteau, Ontario Centres of Excellence
  • Sandra Vasquez, RBC Foundation
  • Yvonne Pilon, WEtech Alliance
  • Bob Hendrick, CAMufacturing
  • Stan Amyotte, Substrata Thin Film Solutions

Throughout the term, each founder was assigned a mentor with whom to work on their business model progress. EPICentre would like to thank the following community members who have graciously offered their time and support to the program:

  • Terra Cadeau
  • David Kirby
  • Melissa Lyons
  • Gerry Simpson

Congratulations to the team who was selected for the top prize of $3,500 provided by the RBC Foundation: Bridget Taylor, New Routes
