$250,000 Biz Plan Contest
Entrepreneur.com:
The Central Valley Business Times announces a $250,000 business plan contest accepting nationwide entries. Finalists will compete in October. Entrants have to have a convincing business plan and be at least 18 years old. That’s it as far as entry requirements.
‘Anyone who has an idea for an innovative new business, and a business plan to match–or who has already started and is growing a business with a promising business plan–is welcome to enter,’ says the sponsor, the Lyles Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship.
The Lyles Center is at California State University, Fresno. Click here for the fully detailed Web announcement. Read down past the sponsorship discussion and the local business justification to the details, including the unusually open entry.
The top 10 finalists will travel to Fresno for a 2-day competition Oct. 2 – 3, where they will present their business plans to a panel of judges. On Oct. 4, the winner–and recipient of $100,000 in cash and $150,000 worth of in-kind services–is to be announced during halftime at the Fresno State Bulldog football game.
Entries will be accepted beginning June 1.
