VentureBeat’s 30-second pitch contest, formerly known as WinSXSW, is going strong. And it’s not too late to enter for a shot at more than $100,000 in prizes and investment — not to mention coverage, glory, fame, and honor.

This year, with a more agile VentureBeat-Buzzstarter team, we were able to interview 160 startups throughout different events at SXSW. This doesn’t include the videos that startups have created themselves and uploaded through the contest site.

And while the interactive portion of SXSW is over, you can still enter the contest by entering your own 30-second pitch at www.win30s.com. You’ve got until Saturday, March 15, at 11:59pm Pacific time.
