This is a student’s chance to win cash, meet other like-minded individuals, and get help to bring their innovative ideas to the market. 

This event serves as an opportunity for young and aspiring entrepreneurs to push themselves into pitching a business idea and getting feedback from real professionals, and encourage putting those ideas into action.
