So the students how to join in this competition?
Folks:
The William James Foundation Socially Responsible Business Plan Competition supports startup mission-driven for-profit organizations. You do not need to be a current student or affiliated with a particular school. We are accepting executive summaries from now until December 12th, 2008. We are deliberately earlier than similar projects so you can enter our competition and use the feedback for Bases E-Challenge. Details at http://younoodle.com/groups... Contact me with questions at ian.fisk@willamjamesfoundatiton.org
only the business plans are due tomorrow (April 11). the presentations will be due the day before the actual presentation day - April 20th.
