Participants will experience the process of planning a startup business by submitting a competitive and realistic 3-5 page business plan and qualifiers will present their idea in a final competition. 

 

NOTE: the CBIC requires that technology (mobile, web, etc), be a focus of your startup idea. 

 

Who should participate?
