Entrepreneurship Participating - Independent or Franchising


 
Entrepreneurship Participating is a business plan event. Students will have an opportunity to develop and present a proposal to form a business. The students will develop and demonstrate mastery of essential skills as they apply to the analysis of a business opportunity, the development of a marketing/ promotion plan and the development of a financial plan.

This event consists of a business prospectus describing a business the student wants to develop and the oral presentation. The student will present the prospectus to the judge in a 20-minute presentation—15 minutes for the student presentation and 5 minutes for judge questions. The judge will evaluate the presentation, focusing on the effectiveness of public speaking and presentation skills and how well the student responds to questions that the judge may ask during the presentation.
