That’s why our 2024 FCE+I Pitch Competition finalists attended our “Path to Profit” workshop, led by advisor, investor, and expert Bart Hacking. Learning from industry leaders like Bart helps our finalists refine their business models and pitch with confidence—not just for this competition, but for all opportunities that come their way. ??

  • We love to see it, Joaquim! ?? So proud to watch Montclair State University students excel in their entrepreneurial endeavors. Our first Creators' Marketplace was a big success with over 30+ student vendors, and we look forward to our next one in April! Keep up the awesome work, Joaquim ??

    ?? Creators Marketplace ?? Last Thursday, February 20, 2025, I had the opportunity to participate as a vendor in the Creators Marketplace hosted by the Feliciano Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation at Montclair State University Having experience selling at my local flea market during the summer, I knew this opportunity was perfect for me. However, this marketplace stood out in a few key ways: ? No tabling fees – Unlike typical markets that charge $55-$120 per table, this event allowed vendors to maximize their profits. ? Student-focused – Every vendor was a student entrepreneur, creating a supportive and collaborative environment. ? Networking opportunities – I connected with both familiar and new vendors, sparking great conversations and fostering a like-minded community. Much love to the Feliciano Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation for organizing yet another phenomenal event for the student body. I look forward to attending and participating in many more!
