We are floored: Nicholas Figler (business & entrepreneurship) won first place at Dolphin Tank, a pitch competition that was hosted by Le Moyne College in Syracuse, New York, on April 14. Nic had just seven minutes to pitch his startup, Figs Finest Detailing, one of nine pitches to a panel of ten entrepreneurs and business leaders. The high-level competition is a platform that’s seen 39 startups go on to reach a combined value of $3.6M. In the end, Nic nailed it—he walked away with substantial prize money that will go a long way in growing his business.
