Launch Point Pitch Competition
The Launch Point Pitch Competition returns in 2025 with its high-energy platform to elevate early-stage entrepreneurs on their start-up journey. It provides new founders and post-secondary students in the Lethbridge Region with an opportunity to pitch, validate, and help launch their business ideas.
Competitors will be challenged to convey:
● the need for their business solution;
● their ability to create and deliver their business idea; and
● their ability to build a sustainable business that will grow over time.

A word from our donors Howard and Suzanne Heil
Innovation is at the heart of mankind’s success. Entrepreneurs are the driving force of innovation. Suzanne, as an Interior Decorator, has been an entrepreneur most of her working life. Howard, as a practicing lawyer has endeavoured to assist entrepreneurs in reaching their full potential.
“It is our hope, in some small way, with this competition more entrepreneurs can be helped to achieve their goals and in so doing improve and better mankind.”
Although we are both graduates of other institutions, we feel the U of L is closely connected to the City of Lethbridge, a community we appreciate and love. The University’s mandate in providing a liberal education is important and one we whole heartily support.
