Challenge 4: Artistic Endeavors

Meet the Level Up 16 Scholars. In a test of their public speaking, goal-setting and self-confidence, Personal Pitch challenges each scholar to craft and deliver a :30 second pitch to our prominent board members as to why they belong on The Level UpExperiment.

12 remaining Level Up scholars are split up into teams and placed into time-sensitive scenarios where they must work together, leveraging each other's strengths to solve complex puzzles, while becoming the first to free themselves from Big Escape Atlanta.

Business owners are challenged daily to seek out every possible resource to make their endeavors a success. In a challenge of creative thinking, flexibility and task delegation, Challenge 3 finds our remaining 10 challengers scouring business throughout the Castleberry Hill district of Atlanta to find and solve clues, keeping their teams safe from elimination.

Successful business owners know how to create a story behind the brand and position themselves in the marketplace. Visual artists are the perfect metaphor for that process and at the BUCKHEAD ART & COMPANY gallery, 8 scholars had the opportunity to partner with prominent artists, learn how to express their own stories through art, and put on a gallery exhibition to pitch their works to the public.

The Beltline is a symbol of Atlanta's progress, however progress often leaves some behind. This hackathon, presented by N’OVATE x Blacks in Technology, takes TLUE challengers into communities around the Beltline to conduct field research, find out what needs are not being served and what technological solutions they can create to solve those problems.

Successful restaurateurs understand that when guests visit, they expect more than a meal. They expect an experience - and the staff is a key part. Critical thinking, agility, adaptability, communication, and teamwork are soft-skills required for success. That is what The Level Up Experience challenge @ Gocha’s Breakfast Bar will put to the test! This episode's elimination will yield our Final Four students who will contend for the crown of The Level Up Experiment Champion - season 1.

In this episode of The Level Up Experiment, the spotlight turns to the world of interior design. As the Final Four contestants step into the world of creativity, innovation, and style, they face the ultimate challenge - utilizing the Arhaus' furniture showroom to create a space to a CLIENT'S specifications, on a limited budget and then dealing with complications that negatively impact said budget.

Challengers will recap their experience and pitch the judges on why they should be the inaugural Level Up Champion!
