Meet the Performers Taking the Stage at the 2026 Great Social Enterprise Pitch

The Great Social Enterprise Pitch is about more than what happens during the competition. It’s a night that brings entrepreneurs, community members and local creatives together to celebrate ideas and people working to make a difference in our community. 

On September 10th, while our judges deliberate and determine this year’s Pitch winners, three local artists will take the stage: Sir Dominique Jordan, Courtni Frey of Jam Hot Radio, and Alexander Colon.

This year, ASSETS is once again working alongside RippleHub to help with stage management and curate the evening’s performances. Founded by Alexander Colon and Tabitha Benitez, RippleHub was a finalist in the 2024 Great Social Enterprise Pitch. After supporting the Pitch again last year, RippleHub returns in 2026 as a partner in bringing this year’s event to life.

Join the Sidewalk Session 

This won’t be a night where the audience just sits back and watches. Alexander Colon and Sir Dominique Jordan will host a Sidewalk Session, inviting the audience into the creative process as they build a beat together. With help from the crowd, Alex and Dominique will turn audience ideas into music live on stage. It’s a chance to see creativity happen in real time and have a hand in what gets made.
