Pressure Chamber returns for its ninth year as emerging companies again compete for the coveted “golden suitcase,” as well as a reserved spot in the Chamber's exclusive Greater Madison startup meetings with top Silicon Valley investment firms this fall.
Participating companies will pitch in front of a panel of out-of-state investors, business executives and a live audience, with the winning company chosen based on a combination of judges scoring and audience votes.
Chamber Members and Forward Fest pass holders: Free
Non-members: $20
If you are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms, please stay home and seek professional medical guidance. Masks are welcome but not required.
NOTE: In fairness to all the participating companies, the doors will close and entry will be denied once the first company takes the stage.
