Founders Live returns!

Founders Live is an unforgettable happy hour competition sweeping the globe.

Five founders take the stage with only 99 seconds to pitch their company to an eager audience, followed by 4 minutes of audience Q&A.

Then the crowd votes on who will receive our winner’s package and the opportunity to talk more about their product or service.

So bring your friends and coworkers, grab some food and drink, get to know your local entrepreneurs, and vote for what you think will be the next big thing… built in South Florida.
