Entry deadline is June 11th, but keep collecting endorsements and pitch ratings!!!

ATTENTION MASSCHALLENGE ENTRANTS: There are two parts of the 1st round judging for MassChallenge that you, as an entrant, can continue to impact after the June 11th entry deadline: Endorsements & Elevator Pitch Rating
To continue to encourage networking and evangelizing their company pitches, we are allowing teams to continue collecting endorsement points and improve their online pitch rating until June 30th at midnight EST for the 1st round of judging (for the second round of judging teams can continue to enter endorsements until July 10th at midnight EST). This is a formal change from what is written on the endorsement tickets themselves, so take note. All methods of accrual will remain the same for both endorsements and pitch rating.
For more information on the endorsement tickets in general please see: http://www.masschallenge.org/competition/rules/
If you are encountering experts, investors and business leaders who do not have endorsements (especially outside of Massachusetts) please feel free to have these contacts send an email to endorsements@masschallenge.org and CC you indicating that they would like to give your team an endorsement. Endorsers should please include a brief background of themselves to validate the endorsement and to maintain the integrity of the endorsement system.
NOTE: Discounts (even if connected to an endorsement) will NOT be accepted past the June 11th entry deadline.

To be clear, the ENTRY DEADLINE IS JUNE 11th at MIDNIGHT EST

    By this time your team must:
1) Complete the entry form (editable up to the entry deadline)
2) Pay the entry fee
3) Enter all DISCOUNT tickets (endorsement related or otherwise) into the entry form in the field marked "endorsements"

    For 1st Round Judging -- From June 12th – June 30th at midnight EST:
1) Continue to collect endorsement points through networking
2) Continue to improve your online pitch rating.
 For 2nd Round Judging -- Through July 10th at midnight EST:
1) Continue to collect endorsement points through networking 
2) Continue to improve your online pitch rating.
Good luck and keep moving!!!
