THUNDER BAY — Royalty Data Rewards Club CEO and founder Donna Tremble is excited about being a semi-finalist in Pow Wow Pitch 2023’s Technology Semi-Final Online Watch Party on Sept. 15. Pow Wow Pitch is inviting people to register for the Watch Parties, which run from Sept. 4-15, at www.powwowpitch.org/register/ and to vote for their favourite entrepreneur for the People’s Choice Prize at www.powwowpitch.org/vote/. The Pow Wow Pitch Finalists are scheduled to pitch on Oct. 19 for their chance to win the $25,000 grand prize, with the Indigenous Entrepreneur Awards digital awards gala scheduled on Nov. 9.
“My business is one of nine Technology semi-finalists — there were over 2,000 applicants in total for all of the categories,” says Tremble, a Kiashke Zaaging Anishinaabek citizen from Thunder Bay. “It’s exciting! I just recorded my pitch with the judges last Friday (Aug. 18). I submitted a one-minute video pitch on the Pow Wow Pitch website at the end of June and then at the end of July, I received an e-mail letting me know that I made it to the semi-finals.”
