Congrats to the Winners of Balloon Pitch 2020!

Balloon Pitch 2020 was a huge success with over 140 attendees hearing pitches from ten New Mexico startups. All companies pitched well and answered tough questions from the judges in Q&A, but the following three rose above the rest to claim top prizes.

FIRST PLACE: Parting Stone ($5,000, balloon ride)

SECOND PLACE: GPER G-1 Development Group ($2,500)

THIRD PLACE: Osazda Energy ($1,500)

And, selected as Crowd Favorite by the attendees in the live web meeting: Parting Stone ($200 gift card)!
