If you are a legal tech startup, don’t miss your chance to compete in Startup Alley, the pitch competition that is a seminal event of ABA TECHSHOW. The deadline for applications is Friday, Dec. 13, 2024 — just 10 days away.

This is the ninth year of Startup Alley, in which 15 startups are selected to compete in a pitch competition that is TECHSHOW’s opening event on April 2, 2025. The 15 startups also get to exhibit in a special Startup Alley section of the exhibit hall.

The 15 finalists are selected from among all the companies that apply, which means you can’t be selected if you don’t get your application in.

Read full details about the competition at this post, where you will also find the application form.

We are making a special push this year to encourage applications from diverse founders. Read more about that here.
