For the first time since REDi’s inception in 2018, five graduates will present their businesses in an All-Star Pitch Competition! Join us on November 17th to hear pitches from 5 All-Star finalists who will compete to win cash prizes and a package of professional services!
A program of Indy Chamber’s Business Ownership Initiative, the ReEntry Entrepreneurship Development Initiative (REDi), addresses the potential connection between entrepreneurship and reducing the rate of re-offending by providing technical business training and education to incarcerated and formerly-incarcerated individuals.
REDi Pitch Night is an opportunity for the community to support and celebrate the entrepreneurs taking control of their future. All-Star Pitch Night will be hosted at the Speak Easy in Broad Ripple.

I resell high-end antiques, collectibles, rarities, home decor, and much more that I buy at auction, thrift stores, flea markets, and I salvage a great deal of things from the trash and receive many donations of items.
