Big Gig (Bangor)

Big Gigs are fun, friendly affairs. You are likely to find that people are encouraging you to pursue your ideas. And they will be eager to introduce you to a supportive community of innovators, entrepreneurs, funders, professional-service providers, and government officials. We want to help make your ideas reality.

Following the initial half-hour or so of networking, drinking, and noshing, there is a pitch-off between three contestants, each of whom hopes to hone their 5-minute presentation, get helpful feedback and publicity for their idea, win that evening’s $250 cash prize, and qualify to compete in the Finale for the $1,500 grand prize.

A panel of three local “Big Wigs” gives feedback to each pitch-off participant and has a partial say in who wins (each Big Wig gets five ballots), but it’s the votes from the audience that ultimately decide who receives that evening’s cash prize.
