IdeaLabs Regionals
Last week, our BW IdeaLabs finalists took on the EEC Regional IdeaLabs competition hosted at the Eaton Corporation headquarters!
Brooke Walburn, Noah Mowery, and Jason Heisler competed amongst 12 other EEC schools and their participants, where they presented 1-3 minute pitches of their ventures to a panel of judges. We are so proud of their hard work and dedication to the competition!
Have an idea and are interested in competing next year? Be on the lookout for IdeaLabs 2025!
We would love to connect with you no matter where you are in your process. From having a simple idea to a fully developed business (and everywhere in between), LaunchNET can assist you. Entrepreneurship is for everybody! We cannot wait to get started helping you achieve your goals and turning your ideas into reality.
