Brock Blake, FundingUniverse CEO.

Six VC tables. Lots of brave entrepreneurs looking for funding. Which of these fledgling companies will get funded? The entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well in Utah. At the Funding Universe speed pitching event, entrepreneurs have seven minutes to pitch their business plan, answer questions, and get valuable feedback from investors. From the perspective of an entrepreneur, I learned a lot about the importance of having your elevator pitch down pat, having good answers for important questions, and networking.
