In teams, students deliver a brief stock pitch presentation and engage in Q&A with judges from Capital Group.  These judges then select the four most compelling participants to form the official pitch team that will represent Columbia at WIN.  The team will then work to prepare a stock pitch according to the official WIN guidelines with mentorship from coaches from Capital Group that they will present at the WIN Conference.
