Descripción

Welcome to the Phillips County Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge (YEC)—a countywide competition designed to inspire the next generation of innovators, problem-solvers, and business leaders. Students will develop a business concept, create a formal business plan, deliver a professional presentation, and showcase their ideas in a public tradeshow-style format.
Prize Breakdown
  • 1st Place: $750
  • 2nd Place: $500
  • 3rd Place: $300
  • 4th Place: $250
  • 5th Place: $150

Competition Components
  1. Business Plan & Financial Plan
    Participants must upload their completed business plan and financials to VentureDash prior to competition day. Judges will review submissions in advance to score and prepare targeted questions.
  2. Formal Presentation
    Students will present their business idea to a panel of 3–5 judges. Presentations must be a minimum of 3 minutes and may not exceed 5 minutes.
  3. Tradeshow Presentation
    Students will also display their business concept in a tradeshow-style setup. While the tradeshow is traditionally incorporated into the formal presentation, all trade show displays will be showcased by each school and PCED for public viewing after the competition concludes.
    PCED provides trifold display boards to all participants unless students prefer to create or supply their own. (Contact PCED for display examples!)
