ByEntrepreneur Staff

The first 60 seconds of a business pitch can change a founder's life and propel a business to new heights. Or they can lead to disappointment and lessons learned. On our streaming showEntrepreneur Elevator Pitch, founders step into theEntrepreneur Elevatorand have just one minute to present an idea, product or business to a panel of experienced investors. If the judges like what they hear, they open the elevator doors and invite the entrepreneur into the boardroom for negotiations. If not, it's back to the ground floor.
