On Wednesday, December 2, the tenth cohort of the Core City: Cleveland Impact Program participated in a virtual version of their culminating showcase event.

This event was an online demo-day-style competition where the seven program participants used their new knowledge and skills to present their pitch to a panel of judges for a chance to take home crucial funding to grow their businesses.

In the end, Arleesha Wilson, also known as “The People’s Esquire” of the Law Office of Arleesha Wilson, was awarded the top prize of $10,000. All other participants were awarded $2,500 in funding.
