The Fast Pitch Competition is part of President Obama’s Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative, or YLAI.
At the event, 10 talented entrepreneurs from Latin American and the Carribean will competitively present their innovative business plans to a panel of local judges. The winner will present in Washington, D.C. at the YLAI Entrepreneurship Summit in November. The YLAI Fellows have been refining their pitches under the membership of local firms including Starbucks, the Seattle International Foundation, Inquiry Partners, and more.
