Gigtank businesses will pitch plans Wednesday

A dozen startups that think they’ve come up with business ideas that take advantage of Chattanooga’s citywide high-speed Internet will unveil their ideas to the public Wednesday night.

The startup teams of GIGTANK 365’s 2016 summer cohort will pitch their startups to investors, media and members of the general public.

Participants, which hail from cities across the Southeast and other locations across the country, will present ideas in 3D printing, virtual reality, telehealth and more.
