Competition submission Workshop
Welcome to the 2021 Student Entrepreneurship Competition!
This competition will help
students and recent graduates take their business ideas forward by
securing cash prizes to invest in their ventures.
This year we are excited to be able to award 10 businesses with £1500 each! To identify these winning businesses the judges panel will ask students to use a platform called Validate to explain their business models and present a portfolio.
Participant will have the months of December, January and February to develop and test their business models in the Validate platform and judges will review their portfolios in March.
