Our annual competition, PitchIt @ LendIt, is an unparalleled platform for early stage fintech startups to move to the center of the industry and stand out among competitors.
Past PitchIt @ LendIt competitions have attracted hundreds of investors, asset managers, funds and entrepreneurs — many of whom were seen intently taking notes as the startups interacted with the judges.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
