Share you expertise – Volunteer to Judge Pitches at Venture Devils

At the ASU Venture Devils program, on Saturday, November 16th 2024, 70-90 top student ventures will be pitching for varying amounts of seed funding from various funding tracks associated with the Venture Devils program. This large-scale event is happening in-person at ASU SkySong in Scottsdale, AZ. Volunteer VIP Judges are needed to provide thoughtful and thorough evaluations of these teams. We are looking for diverse, interdisciplinary judging panels and for consistency with this across all judging rooms. These panels will be assembled based on the sign-up response in coordination with the judges and stakeholders that are participating. We will notify you if you’ve been selected as a judge at least one week prior to the event.
