Entrepreneur Elevator Pitch Ep. 2: 'Has Anybody Not Seen That Product?' Stream Entrepreneur's new pitch show and support the contestants on Indiegogo if their ideas catch your eye.

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.

Each week, Entrepreneur Elevator Pitch gives aspiring entrepreneurs one minute to prove that their product or business is the next million-dollar idea. Each contestant delivers a quick "elevator pitch" as the lift ascends toward a panel of high-profile investors waiting in the boardroom. Some pass the first test and earn face time with our experts, and others flail, disappointedly making the descent to the lobby with no deal in tow.

In the second episode of the series, hopeful contestants may think their ideas are fresh and exciting, but more than half will fall short of the investors' standards. From 21st-century photo booths to a line of lingerie, which will the judges decide to back, and which will leave them puzzled or unconvinced? Play this week's episode above to learn more, and support the ideas you think show promise through Indiegogo.
