Second annual [Re]Verse Pitch closes Tuesday
Monday, December 5, 2016 by Nina Hernandez
Help further Austin’s zero-waste goals by attending the city’s second annual [Re]Verse Pitch competition, where local companies come up with ideas for recycling each other’s unwanted items into a new product or service. The business or nonprofit with the best idea wins the $10,000 Innovation Prize. Here’s a taste of some of the proposals: ACL survival bags, Pulp Fashion and hyperlocal tarps. The finals will take place tomorrow at 6 p.m. at Atlassian, 303 Colorado St., and are free and open to the public with RSVP. Find more information at www.reversepitch.org.
