The Drupal Association and key partners have committed to investing $70,000 into projects selected for investment as part of the DrupalCon Pitch-burgh contest!

DrupalCon Pitch-burgh is an innovation contest loosely inspired by Shark Tank. Members of the Drupal Community are invited to submit a short video pitching an innovative idea with a request for funding. A panel of judges will select the winners, and Dries will present the top ideas during his keynote at DrupalCon Pittsburgh! Learn more and submit your ideas.

The Drupal Association will be investing $30,000, and to date, seven Drupal Certified Partners have committed $40,000 in matching investment. This funding will make an incredible impact in moving the winning pitches forward!

Additional investors are welcome - we will be accepting investment commitments right up to DrupalCon Pittsburgh.  Please contact Kelly Delaney (kelly@association.drupal.org) if you’re interested in investing.     

The current investors are:

  • Drupal Association 
  • Acquia 
  • 1xINTERNET 
  • Palantir.net
  • Digital Polygon 
  • Zoocha 
  • Skilld 
  • ImageX 

Thank you to our Certified Partners for their investment in Drupal’s future. We cannot wait to see what the Drupal community comes up with for Pitch–burgh!
