The Lewiston Auburn Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce announces that applications are now being accepted for the 2019 Top Gun LA entrepreneurship acceleration program.
Top Gun, Maine’s premier entrepreneurship program, accelerates the progress of the state’s most promising start up and early stage companies through a combination of mentoring, learning sessions, and networking. First established by the Maine Center for Entrepreneurs, Top Gun celebrates its tenth year in 2019. The LA Metro Chamber has offered the program locally since 2017. The Top Gun program is also offered in Portland, Bangor, Rockland and Waterville.
Program information and applications are available at http://www.mced.biz. Application deadline has been extended to Thursday, November 15! The program begins February 6, 2019 and runs through the end of May 2019. In addition to submitting a short online application, prospective companies will be required to submit a pitch deck and present a live pitch to the interview committee in the location they wish to join.
The program will conclude with regional pitch off events where the top two semi-finalists in each region will move on to compete for a $25,000 cash prize sponsored by the Maine Technology Institute.
