It's time to enter the Minnesota Cup Contest
5/5/2010
The call is out for entries for the Sixth Annual Minnesota Cup -- a statewide contest designed to seek out, support, celebrate and promote Minnesota's newest and most innovative business ideas. Lommen Abdo is a sponsor of the 2010 Minnesota Cup, and Brad Lehrman is proud to participate once again as one of the judges for the state-wide business plan competition.
This year's competition offers more than $130,000 in prizes across six award divisions: High Tech, BioSciences, Clean Tech & Renewable Energy, Social Entrepreneurship, General and Student. A finalist from each division -- with the exception of the student division -- will be awarded $20,000. The winners of each division will compete for an additional $20,000 grand prize. The student winner will receive $5,000 and be eligible for the grand prize.
If you're an entrepreneur, consider entering the contest as a means to meet and receive feedback from leading investors, win cash prizes and take the first step to make your business idea a reality. NOTE: Businesses must be based in Minnesota, have historical annual revenue of less than one million and been in operation for less than five years.
