The October SMIT Meet-Up event is an opportunity for technology businesses, start-ups and anyone interested in innovation to pitch ideas, network and learn about Southern Maryland organizations that support business growth and development.

During the event, entrepreneurs can enter the Startup Maryland bus and pitch their idea or businesses in a mobile video studio. Those videos are immediately uploaded to YouTube for the public to view and vote on. In addition, attendees are invited to enjoy a facility tour and sample tastings from Mully’s Brewery. Approximately 10-15 Pitch Across Maryland video pitch slots are available for each tour stop — so space is limited.

Registration for the Pitch Across Maryland competition is required to participate and to receive the free video after the competition. The registration link can be found here: Pitch Registration Link This year’s STRT1UP Road Show Southern Maryland stops are a collaboration of Southern Maryland’s entrepreneurial ecosystem partners, including the economic development departments from Charles, Calvert and St. Mary’s counties; Maryland Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO); Southern Maryland Innovation and Technology (SMIT)
