Big Turnout for Business Plan Contest
Topics: Education-Business EducationEducation-Business EducationBusiness Ventures-Business PlanThe dream of starting their own business inspired 110 teams of students to enter the 2010 HBS Business Plan Contest, which awarded $170,000 in cash and in-kind services to winners and runners-up in separate business venture and social venture tracks. The final round of judging took place on April 27.
The winner of the business venture track, OsComp Systems, is commercializing an innovative technology that forces natural gas through pipelines at lower cost and with greater efficiency. The social venture track winner, Urban Water Partners, will lease water filters to vendors in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, to improve access to clean drinking water for the city’s 2.8 million residents.
