Contrary, a venture fund connecting early-career engineers to a network that's backed by the founders of Tesla and Reddit, is holding a pitch competition for university students in D.C., Maryland and Virginia.

It's open to founders who are students or recent alums from a DMV school. Applications are open through Feb. 19.

 

The event, which is hosted locally by the University of Maryland and Johns Hopkins, will be held virtually on Saturday, Feb. 27 from 1-3 p.m.
