==== Contacting the University of Michigan&nbsp;<br/> ====
<font face="georgia, serif">To bring 1000 pitches to your campus you need to reach out to the initial organization that launched the event, MPowered, at the University of Michigan. The organization will set up a contract to work with you and your school to make the event a success and continue to live up to the original event, much like what has been done at Penn State University. The organization will supply you with much of the marketing resources such as building a website. Once the contract and details have been worked out with the organization you can move on to the next step.&nbsp;</font><font face="georgia, serif"></font>

You need to construct a base that is rich in many different types of organizations on campus to be able to access a larger part of the student and administrative bodies. Talk to other Innovation minded groups on campus as well as groups that are known for having alot of student participants. Create a circle or a few key individuals who would like to truly donate their time and effort to making the event a reality.
