Congratulations to the winners of this year’s Founders Forum Pitch Competition, presented by EY and PayPal! On February 26, three NFTE alumni entrepreneurs showcased their ventures, competing for a share of a $10,000 capital investment pool. After delivering their best pitches, Jasstina Featherstone, founder of Jazz Esscents Candle Co., secured the top prize of $5,000 to fuel her business, which specializes in dessert candles, using aromatherapy to create therapeutic products. Autumn Harmon earned $3,000 for Express Yourself Studio, while Chardonnay Henry took home $2,000 for Autism Axis Network. A huge thank you to our incredible finalists for their inspiring pitches, our judges for their time and expertise, and our guest speaker, Delano A. Johnson, for sharing his insights!
