6 Startups to Present at RAMP Demo Day

The RAMP Spring 2025 cohort has been hard at work laying the groundwork for growth and refining their pitches. Soon, their 12-week accelerator experience will conclude, but not without a little fanfare first! RAMP is proud to present all 6 cohort companies June 5 as they pitch to a live audience at Demo Day.

“Demo Day is the culmination of an intense three months of work and gives entrepreneurs the opportunity to present their pitch live on stage to the region’s business leaders and community. For the community, it is a chance to be inspired by the vision and talent in the region and to celebrate the achievements of this season’s cohort,” said RAMP Director John Hagy. 

In other words, Demo Day is not to be missed! Spring 2025 Demo Day takes place June 5 at One City Plaza Events at 5pm with programming beginning at 5:30. Participants are invited to a celebratory reception immediately following the pitches.
