Do you have what it takes to impress a snake?

The Halton Region Rotary Clubs have partnered with the Royal Bank of Canada and McMaster University DeGroot School of Business to inspire would be entrepreneurs to make a pitch for cash and partnerships.  Following the successful franchise The Dragons Den, the Pythons Pit is the local answer.

Pythons Pit is now seeking applications from age levels high school and up to present their business plan to a panel of successful entrepreneurs in a hope to get some cash and possible business partnership.  At the very least it's an opportunity to pitch your idea to experts who will give you honest feedback.  Hopefully without some of the meanness that you see on Dragons Den.  The Pythons hope to inspire and mentor even if the idea is not investment worthy for them.

Check out the interview in the Oakville Beaver article about the Pythons Pit and the panel itself.

Applications for business concepts are being accepted to January 7 2013.

I encourage you to take the plunge into the pit.
