How Disruptathon works:

We are currently soliciting applications and will ultimately select eight companies to feature during the event. Companies will be downselected by our panel of judges based on the following criteria;

• Uniqueness 
• Design
• Model
• Disruptive positioning

Each presenter will get five minutes to make their pitch. The audience will utilize the Disruptathon Innovation Discovery Platform to provide ratings and feedback. 

The results will be calculated once all ratings are in and awards will be in several categories at the conclusion of the program. All companies presenting are finalists and will be recognized.
