Forge Forward Competition Join us each spring for the annual Forge Forward Pitch Competition — a one-day event open to students from every college at The University of Alabama in Huntsville. The competition brings together student innovators, industry partners and the campus community for a day of pitches, networking and inspiration. Participants have the opportunity to showcase their ideas, gain valuable feedback and connect with others building in the entrepreneurial space. Compete for Scholarship Awards Participants will have the opportunity to compete for scholarship awards presented to the top teams. In addition to scholarship funding, students gain valuable presentation experience, feedback from industry professionals and exposure to potential mentors and partners A Pathway to Acceleration Top participants from the UAH College of Business may be selected by our partners, including Blue Summit Accelerator and Gener8tor, to continue into their programs. This is a direct pathway to mentorship, funding opportunities and the resources needed to take your idea to the next level.
