On Friday, April 10, and Friday, April 17, the Dingman Center for Entrepreneurship will host Pitch Dingman walk-in sessions aboard the Terp Ride bus as part of UMD's 30 Days of Entrepreneurship celebration (#30DaysUMD). Entrepreneurs-in-residence will be on the bus ready to give actionable feedback on business ideas from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Terp Ride will be parked in the bus terminal outside of Stamp Student Union.
Every student who pitches an idea will receive a free t-shirt to commemorate the celebration. The Academy for Innovation and Entrepreneurship will join in by hosting the popular "What If" sessions right outside of the bus. This giant brainstorm session will bring together the UMD community to re-imagine topics they care about.
