midVenturesLAUNCH is the largest startup conference in the Midwest, showcasing new and innovativestartups and apps in the technology space. Bringing together entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, the media, and railroad tycoons from all parts of the Midwest tech community, LAUNCH is a unique opportunity to watch new ideas come to life. Join us at the new epicenter of midwest startup innovation.
Showcase your venture or product through two different tracks:
LAUNCH
Introduce your new product or service to an audience of industry professionals as part of our LAUNCH track. We’re accepting 25 companies for the chance to jumpstart start their product, to whom we’ll supply a 6′ table at the exhibition floor, a targeted audience of industry professionals, bloggers, media, and fellow entrepreneurs, and 3 minutes of stage time. Any company that has debuted a new technology application can launch it in the showcase.

COMPETE
Think your venture is better than the rest? Apply for COMPETE, where we’ll be selecting the top 25 start-ups to be judged by our expert panel. If you are accepted, then you’ll be given a table on the exhibition floor for free. The first round of judging is done à la science fair, with judges intermingling with attendees to watch your pitch on the exhibition floor. The top five will then be selected for a 3 minute pitch in front of the audience and the panel of judges, where they will undergo a second round of judging. The top five startups will take home over $75,000 in prizes courtesy of our sponsors.
