Antlion Pit Demonstration Day

Monday, November 10, 2025
9:00 AM - 11:30 AM Pacific
Location: Oregon Convention Center, Exhibit Hall A-A1, OCC

Antlion Pit is designed to empower ESA members to develop and present their innovative ideas for entomology-related products and services. The competition encourages the development of the entrepreneurial spirit through idea leadership, innovation, teamwork, and mentorship. The venture idea may focus on a technology, product, process, service, or social venture. Teams will be available in the Exhibit Hall for a two-hour informal interactive event where they will present their ideas and prototypes to judges and interested meeting registrants.
