Cocovana Wins University of Florida Gator Hatchery Demo Day Pitch!

Cocovana just won the University of Florida Gator Hatchery Demo Day 3-Minute Pitch! The Gator Hatchery is the on-campus student incubator. The Demo Day Event was a required pitch for all current Gator Hatchery ventures.

There were 5 external judges comprised of entrepreneurs, investors, an attorney, as well as judges from the University of Florida Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation Center. Cocovana Founder Sheldon Barrett presented market validation numbers, customers, competition, viable business models, and semester accomplishments. Cocovana was able to score highest among all other ventures and receive critical external feedback from the judges.

Cocovana would like to thank the University of Florida Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation Center, the Gator Hatchery, and Nola Miyasaki for providing such amazing resources and support for all student entrepreneurs!
