Pitch Across Maryland celebrates entrepreneurship throughout Maryland. A Maryland-themed tour bus travels around the State from September 15 - October 3.

These companies will present at the Maryland Entrepreneur Expo on November 12, 2014 at the BWI Airport Marriott where the StartUp Maryland winner is chosen.

The Montgomery County Department of Economic Development and the Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce have partnered to host this year's Pitch Across Maryland stops in Montgomery County on Wednesday, October 1.
