C-SEED Events

Creating Value, One Event at a Time

Test your entrepreneurial skillset through C-SEED’s campus-wide events! We offer a variety of competitions, workshops, guest speakers, networking opportunities and showcases centered around the principles of creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship. Each event is designed to help students build valuable skills, connect with mentors and create value for others.

Seasonal Markets

Throughout the academic year, C-SEED hosts campus markets that provide student entrepreneurs with opportunities to showcase and sell their products while gaining real-world business experience. Students can participate in markets hosted in locations such as Krannert and other high-traffic areas across campus. In addition, The Shipyard hosts two signature student markets each year during Mountain Day and the spring semester.

The PITCH

Berry’s annual PITCH competition gives students the opportunity to present innovative business ideas and compete for funding to help launch or grow their entrepreneurial ventures. Open to students from all academic disciplines, The PITCH provides participants with one-on-one mentorship, business development support and the opportunity to present their ideas before a panel of judges. Audience members are encouraged to attend, support their peers and participate in the Audience Choice Award voting.
