Terp Startup Accelerator: DEMO DAY 2025

​Join the Dingman–Lamone Center for Entrepreneurship for a live showcase of innovation at Demo Day—the culminating event of our Terp Startup Accelerator summer program!

​Over the past 8 weeks, our student founders have been hard at work building their ventures with support from hands-on workshops, dedicated mentors, co-working space, and a $5,000 stipend. Now, they’re ready to pitch their progress to you.

​You’ll get a front-row seat as each founder takes the stage to compete for $6,000 in Demo Day prizes, including the audience choice awards powered by Dingman Dollars—your chance to "invest" in your favorite ventures.

​Stick around after the pitches for a networking reception with drinks and light hors d’oeuvres. It’s the perfect way to connect with the next generation of fearless founders.
