  • How will Pitch Day be graded?

    There are a variety of criteria our team uses to make the final selection. Some of the most important are:
    • You + Team: What's your special sauce? Tell us why you (any your team!) are the right - person to make this business the next big thing!
    • Vision: Do you have the passion needed to make your business successful?
    • Innovation: Is there a clear market opportunity and are you solving a specific need that is not yet served by an existing company?
    • Product: Do you have a working prototype that has been iterated on at least once to incorporate user feedback?
    • Plan: Do you have a business model or a strategy to grow your company?
    • Better for Beauty: Are you moving the beauty industry towards improving in some way - whether with better, more clean ingredients, sustainable materials, ethically sourced, etc. ?

  • How are you choosing candidates?

    The mentors and New Voices Foundation will collectively be choosing the finalists.

  • How will I know if my application has been received?

    You will receive an email confirmation shortly after you've submitted.

  • What if there are no social media accounts or website for my business?

    There is no penalty for having no website or social media account(s). You don't have to create one just for this application.
