IdeaFunding, a signature event of Startup Tucson, is one of Arizona’s longest running pitch competitions and has been providing Southern Arizona entrepreneurs with a platform to share innovation for almost 25 years. This year, as TENWEST Impact Festival has been rescheduled to 2022, IdeaFunding will be a part of Startup Together AZ. We are excited to be teaming up with premier entrepreneurial organizations across the state to focus on entrepreneurship and supporting small businesses for the full month of April. We will be reimagining the pitch competition to be more inclusive of the main street businesses that are really struggling right now. We are excited for the expanded reach and the way that we will be able to address the pressing concerns of our community in a timely way.
