And the Student Technology Innovation Competition from Calgary.  So this is a pan provincial program.  The students participate in the STIC and CEFE programs and then the winners and finalists of that go into the student program with VenturePrize.      So it&rsquo;s an ideal opportunity for them to get lots of advice and experience to build their own business plan.  They get feedback from judges and screeners.  And then, of course, the ultimate opportunity to participate as a winner. So it&rsquo;s something that anyone that&rsquo;s considering starting a company should seriously consider.  It&rsquo;s great.<\/em> <\/p>\n<p> For more details about the business plan competition, check the website at <em>VenturePrize.com<\/em> <\/p>\n<p><strong> FOR INNOVATION ANTHOLOGY,<br \/> I&rsquo;M CHERYL CROUCHER<\/strong> <\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"\"><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02009-10-06<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The <strong>TEC VenturePrize Business Plan Competition<\/strong> is launching its 8th year on <strong>October 14th.<\/strong>  And  organizers of VenturePrize encourage <strong>student entrepreneurs<\/strong> to join in the competition.
