If you have a truly great idea, you should be ready to sum it up for anyone, anytime — and it shouldn’t take much convincing. That’s one thing the judges on the new streaming show Âé¶¹Éç Elevator Pitch can all agree on. Each week, contestants step into the Âé¶¹Éç Elevator and have just one minute to present their idea, product or business to a panel of experienced investors. If our experts want to learn more, the doors to the boardroom open. If not, an automated voice coos, “Going down.”

Episode 5 is all about technology. From custom handbags to on-demand personal trainers, four creative entrepreneurs enter the elevator with high-tech ideas for everyday goods and services. Which innovations will pry open the boardroom doors, and which of their creators will take a ride of shame to the ground floor? Watch this week’s episode above to find out, and if you think you’ve seen the next million-dollar idea, head to to support it.
