SUMMARY:Pitch Perfected
DESCRIPTION:Jossy Harrington will serve as a judge at The Wharton School’s upcoming Pitch Perfected event on April 21. \nPitch Perfected brings together undergraduate founders enrolled in Wharton’s Entrepreneurial Communication course to present their ventures to a panel of industry leaders. Throughout the course\, students develop a critical insight: entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial success depends not only on the strength of an idea\, but on the clarity\, confidence\, and credibility with which it is communicated. \nWe are excited to see the ideas these talented students bring forward and proud to support the next generation of founders as they sharpen both their ventures and their voices.
