About us

1mcSLC is a weekly event that gives two startups the opportunity to give a 6-minute presentation and engage in 20 minutes of Q&A with a room full of peers, mentors, service providers, and potential investors.

Whether you are a serial entrepreneur with multiple exits or completely new to entrepreneurship we invite you to join us each Wednesday morning from 9 to 10 to learn from, connect with and provide feedback to local startups.

We encourage all who are interested to apply to present!
The culture surrounding 1mcSLC is that of a supportive, neutral space welcoming entrepreneurs to be open and honest about their businesses and the challenges they face. As opposed to a traditional “pitch” environment, 1MC was not created to be critical of entrepreneurs, but rather to learn from shared experiences and find ways to support one another as a community.

1MC is an educational experience for both the audience and the presenters. Presenters are provided with resources and support to prepare for their presentation and while it’s not the main focus, 1mcSLC undeniably helps presenters publicize their businesses and products.
