The TSP Live Pitch Competition will award more than $70,000 in cash and prizes to emerging entrepreneurs with scalable, high-growth business models. After a rigorous selection process, three finalists have been chosen to present their companies live onstage before an audience of over 1,000 entrepreneurs, investors, and business leaders.
James L. Walker, Jr., founder of Walker & Associates, will serve as both presenting sponsor and judge for the competition. A nationally recognized entertainment and corporate attorney, Walker has represented an influential roster of clients including Rev. Jesse Jackson, Aretha Franklin, WNBA standout Raven Johnson, and American Idol winner Jamal Roberts. He has also been named a Billboard Top Lawyer for four consecutive years and maintains ownership interests across multiple sectors, including law, real estate, entertainment, and Broadway productions.
“Supporting platforms that create real access and opportunity for entrepreneurs is a core part of our mission,” said Walker. “TSP has consistently built an ecosystem that empowers business owners to scale and succeed. We are honored to contribute to that impact through the pitch competition.”
Hosted by Lamar and Ronnie Tyler, TSP Live is one of the country’s premier conferences for Black entrepreneurs, offering advanced business education, high-level networking, and actionable strategies focused on revenue growth and long-term sustainability.
