The Pitch Show was born out of Alan Siege’s love of improvisation, his passion for teaching and his desire to help young businesses get on their feet. Calling The Pitch Show, The Petri Dish of Entrepreneurship, he seeks out startups whose founders have passion, drive, and commitment, but lack the resources needed to get started. Many are quirky, yet are led by people whose determination know no bounds.These are business who have three bottom lines: their impact on people, their effect on the planet and their ability to make a profit. Since the first Show in 2019, he has showcased nearly 50 early-stage businesses, many of which have moved ahead on realizing their dream of building a successful company.
