LaunchLab kicked off the 2018 Fall semester with its first Welcome Back
Pitch & Showcase. Participating students presented a two-minute pop-up pitch,
highlighting a problem and solution that apply to one of
West Virginia Forward’s three main areas of focus: business, education or human
capital. Students’ pitches included specific ideas on how we can bring more manufacturing
jobs to the state, advance educational opportunities to students to retain talent
in West Virginia – particularly among underrepresented populations – and create more
jobs.
