David Besprozvanny, Brianna Bastone, Melissa Fiore, Rayhan Kara, Kamran Mokhtari-Fotovat, and Julia Altomare: BBI 201 Business students that created a Dragon's Nest Pitch. Their idea, Bag 2 School, was a subscription backpack and school supplies website that delivered all the necessary school items to the parent's door before the school year. Parents could replenish these supplies over the course of the year. Their charity component was to donate 2 backpacks of supplies to those in need from developing countries with every 10 backpacks sold. They also hope to help local families that cannot afford school supplies. These students came in a close second place.
