About Wild Pitch at DIG SOUTH Tech Summit
DIG SOUTH Tech Summit launched Wild Pitch In 2014 with the idea of showcasing the American South’s best early and growth-stage companies. Wild Pitch is open to early, seed and growth-stage companies from the region plus national and international startups with an interest in doing business and raising funds in the South, or, even better, relocating to the region.
In addition to Wild Pitch, DIG SOUTH Tech Summit offers opportunities for startups to exhibit, network with investors, participate in speed-dating for startups, catch 25+ speaker sessions and enjoy hip happy hours and dine-arounds across the Charleston Peninsula.
What’s the prize for Wild Pitch?
The prize for the 2025 Summit includes 2 Dig Nation memberships ($1000 value) and a $7500 Silver-Level sponsorship to Dig South Tech Summit 2026.
Wild Pitch is produced independently by DIG SOUTH and is the neutral Switzerland of pitch events, the rising tide lifting all startups across the American South, and connecting them to investors and leading global brands. DIG SOUTH does not run an accelerator or incubator, or support a VC fund, and is not co-owned or produced by a chamber organization or economic development group.
What if my startup is not selected?
No worries, we’re stoked to offer the following opportunities to connect with investors, tech execs, experts and founders at the Summit: Startup Alley, 25+ speaker sessions, workshops, networking shindigs, Charleston’s first Quantathon and more. Buy your badge today at dignation.co and get a free membership to Dig Nation: The South’s Tech Tribe.
Get in touch if you’d like to secure an exclusive Startup Alley exhibitor booth or sponsor an investor dinner.
