Calling all Boulder-based entrepreneurs: Uber wants to take you for a ride — that just might change your life.

In a blog post, the ridesharing company announced today they’re bringing their UberPITCH offer to Boulder, right in the middle of Boulder Startup Week.

Like its other promotions, where they bring kittens or donuts to offices, UberPITCH will bring investors from

, and Boulder Ventures to entrepreneurs in Boulder looking to pitch their ideas.

On Thursday you can request “PITCH” in the Uber app, and Uber drivers will bring notable investors like David Cohen and Brian Wallace right to you. Users must enter the code “PITCHBOULDER” under the app’s “promotions” tab, and they must be in Central Boulder. Connected users will have 15 minutes to make their pitch, right there in the Uber SUV.

All participants will also gain entry to the Uber Developer after-party on Friday.

Start prepping those pitches, Boulder.
