Elevator Pitch Examples 

These are Elevator Pitch examples by our Engagement Facilitators  from their 1st Year as EXITO Scholars (2016)  and updated versions from June 2020. These videos are BONUS CONTENT and you are not required to watch them. EXITO is providing these videos to highlight the fact that your Summer Research Academy elevator pitch is just the beginning of your journey as a researcher and your elevator pitch will change over time.
