WHAT: ALAN B LEVAN | NSU BROWARD CENTER OF INNOVATION (Levan Center) to host Pitch Night event for their ‘Incubate’ Program Cohort #3 on Monday, April 25, 2022, at 4:00PM.
- The Levan Center’s ‘Incubate’ Program is a six-week course that allows entrepreneurs who have a tested minimum viable product (MVP) and a clear customer base to continue through the growth stage of business development. The participating organizations utilize various wraparound services and labs at the Levan Center to continue the advancement of their business proposition.
- The focus areas of the ‘Incubate’ program are: Rapid Prototyping, Commercialization, and Funding Structure.
- Five of the resident ‘Incubate’ program participants will present their projects to a panel of judges during the Pitch Night event.
- The five presenting organizations are:
- HERBY (Manufacturing / Cannabis): Herby simplifies herbal extraction. The first of its kind, Herby’s closed loop, one touch system combines patent-pending ultrasonic and ethanol extraction methods into one user friendly, countertop sized appliance. With Herby, creating home remedies is easy, and customers can control potency and quality to suit individual needs.
- SHOW AGENTS (Technology / Real Estate): Show Agents is a mobile platform that connects overbooked realtors to local showing assistants, enabling them to skip showing appointments but keep the commission.
- CAPITAL POCKET CORP (FinTech): The Capital Pocket app will simplify day-to-day financial transactions for immigrants in the US and Latin American customers, by deploying options and services that involve new technologies (AR+MR) to better transact and consume information.
- ATHLETE SENSE (Sport Technology): Athlete Sense is a small, mobile, motion tracking wearable that easily attaches to any piece of hockey equipment. It converts physical play into digital and audio data streams for performance improvement and player safety motion tracking.
- CYZL (Technology / Social Media): CYZL is a real-time guide to what’s hot nearby. Designed to help users “get out there” with confidence, CYZL gives users the insider’s scoop on the scene, the crowd, wait times and more, at local area hot spots.
- This inaugural event is intended to set the stage for future program members, entrepreneurs, and community members to grow with the Levan Center and showcase their work to the South Florida community. The event will provide the pitching organizations with exposure to potential customers, investors, and community members.
