Announcing the 10thth annual Global
Social Entrepreneurship Competition (GSEC)! |
|
Students: Do you have a world-changing idea? The
Global Social Entrepreneurship Competition (GSEC) is a social venture plan competition open to enrolled university students in any discipline around the world. Applicants submit an executive summary of a
business idea that both addresses an issue related to global poverty and will be implemented in the developing world. The deadline for this year’s competition is Tuesday
November 12, 2013 at midnight Pacific Time. Semi-finalist teams (about 15-20) will be notified in early December, and will be invited to compete at the week-long competition held at the University of Washington in Seattle February 24-28, 2014, where
they will receive coaching, network with hundreds of local health, development and business professionals, attend an event with the Seattle Rotary, and finally, compete for cash and in-kind prizes, including a grand prize of $12,500, a $10,000 Global Health
prize, a $10,000 ICT prize, and other prizes from the Rotary and NCIIA, detailed along with their criteria
here. Applications will open in August, 2013. Learn more about GSEC at our
website. |
