2013 Business Plan Competition at The Merage School of Business

The 2013 Business Plan Competition at The Paul Merage School of Business is one of the nation's premier business plan competitions offering all UC Irvine students, staff and researchers the opportunity to form a team, create a business plan and potentially fund their business idea all within six months. The competition will start with our Kick-off event held on Tuesday, November 13, 2012 at the UC Irvine Student Center and will end with the Final Presentations and Awards Ceremony where over $100,000 in cash prizes will be awarded on Friday, May 10, 2013. Between the kick-off and finals, we offer seven workshops covering a broad area of business plan development skills led by leading practitioners from Orange County. The Competition also provides individual team coaches to all teams that qualify for the semi-finals.
