Time to shine!

Drexel University's Charles D. Close School of Entrepreneurship is challenging high school students to reach for new heights, develop an idea for a business (profit or not for profit), then pitch to a panel of judges. Each high school will select a representative (individual or group) to compete in this virtual competition. Throughout competition preparation and execution, students will gain skills such as recognizing needs, developing opportunities and moving ideas forward – all crucial skills that students can apply to any field they pursue.

 

The winning teams/individuals from each school have the opportunity to compete for a $2,500 cash prize in a final competition hosted virtually by Drexel University's Charles D. Close School of Entrepreneurship.

 

Rising Starters 2021 will run Monday, May 10th from 3:30-6:30 pm EST on Zoom.
