Calling all Young Social Innovators!
If you have a great idea for a new socially responsible product, service or business model, OCE’s Social Enterprise Student Competition is for you! This is your chance to receive guidance in developing a business plan for your social enterprise and present it to leading social innovation experts at an open pitch competition. Up to four prizes of $20,000 will be awarded to the winners to develop their social enterprises. The 10 semi-finalists will also receive a reimbursement of up to $1,000 for eligible expenses incurred in the course of preparing their business plan.
Showcase your idea in a three-minute video, using props or whatever creative presentation technique you can devise. Submissions will be broadcast on OCE’s YouTube channel and linked from our Facebook page. Don’t miss your opportunity to be a part of the next generation of social entrepreneurs!
