Demo Day

At the conclusion of the program, Contrary and V1 will host Demo Day, where all Build Blue Teams will have the chance to showcase their impressive and innovative projects. This provides a unique opportunity for the top teams to present their creations and network with investors and local entrepreneurs. Not only will they be able to seek funding and support for the future growth of their projects, but also potentially connect with individuals who can provide mentorship and guidance as they navigate their entrepreneurial journey.
