I am delighted to invite graduate students to submit proposals to compete in the 6th annual University of San Francisco International Business Plan Competition.
The USF International Business Plan Competition is one of the World's Premier Graduate Student Entrepreneurial Events. The 2008 Contest will be held April 3 - 5. All Graduate Students from every nation are invited to submit business plan proposals for participation.
Total Awards for the 2008 Competition will total approximately $25,000; however, the real prize is the chance for your students to offer their business proposals before dozens of leading Silicon Valley Venture Capitalists and Chief Executives. Judges from our previous competitions have included venture capital partners with: Kleiner Perkins, Crosslink Capital, Draper Fisher Jurvetson, De Novo Ventures, Hummer Winblad Venture Partners, Nth Power, Garage Technology Ventures, Globespan Capital, and many more; such as those featured in the Silicon Valley Venture Capitalist Confidence Index (Bloomberg ticker: USFSVVCI) http://www.usfca.edu/sobam/nvc/pub/svvcindex.html.
As the only University Business Plan Competition in Silicon Valley open to complete graduate teams from other universities, the USF Competition provides a unique entrepreneurial opportunity for all graduate students.
We invite currently enrolled graduate students to submit a 5 - 7 page executive summary of their business plans by email attachment by February 4, 2008 for full consideration. Submissions should be emailed to the contest founder: Professor Mark Cannice (Cannice@usfca.edu).
