Nebraska Governor's New Venture Competition

Pitch Deck Rubric

Instructions

*Look for the ventures that provide the greatest economic impact in Nebraska and those that will come to fruition.
*Identify what ventures could really use the seed money- rather than it just being another $25k to add to a larger pot.
*How will the new venture be transformative? For whom?
*Traction is preferred over the idea itself. Look at what has been done, ideas themselves are somewhat subjective
*Always take the business idea over the presentation
*All things being equal, who is further along?
