Get ready because the Pitch it Texarkana finals are going down on Tuesday evening, April 29, at Crossties and you do not want to miss it!

This year, over 50 people will be competing for the top prize as they present their best business ideas, great inventions or products that we can't live without. The clincher is that they only have 3 minutes to 'pitch' their idea. No fancy drawings or slide show, just them a prop or prototype and their delivery.

There is some big money to win to help them get started on their idea, too. First place will receive $10,000, second place gets $5,000 and 3 place gets $2,500.  They will all be winners in a way, as every participant will receive a 3-month membership to The Assembly Line. The Assembly Line is a hub for entrepreneurs, business owners and creative professionals where they can come together for business classes, mentoring and other resources to help build successful businesses in our community.
