Competition Brief
ProX is a Real World Learning initiative providing summer professional experiences for high school students.
About
The problem is that when it comes to making the world a better place, youth is the way, but the youth does not realize it. Our solution included awareness to youth unaffected and support to youth affected. Our main audience is both of those groups of youth (the affected and the unaffected) as well as adults who can offer their support and make ways for their youth to be a different generation than they were. This is also for the adults who believe our generation is “lazy” and the generation that is “always on their phones”. We are not. We are the generation that will make more change than they ever did. The next steps needed would be putting our project out there. May it be by physical interaction or social media.

This was a fantastic pitch! You showed how informed you are about the market space you are entering by understanding and adding in the gamification that comes with your mascot.

Your video is grate and shows how much work you have put in to a Cotten candy business! I did get lost when reading the written submission as it covers skin care products and not cotton candy. This discrepancy made the pitch unclear but a simple update and clarification would get you back on track in no time.
