This dynamic afternoon will feature talented entrepreneurs pitching their businesses to a panel of esteemed judges. The finalists will earn the opportunity to take the stage at the “What’s Your Pitch?” competition during the CelebrASIAN 2026 Conference, where they will compete for a $5,000 cash prize and national visibility. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, business leader, investor, student, or simply passionate about innovation, this is a great opportunity to network, support small businesses, and witness the future of entrepreneurship.
