What’s your big idea? Is it for a new business, or a social enterprise? Have you wondered about how you can make it happen? The inaugural Emma Enterprise Competition is your opportunity to learn, experiment and even get a starting investment.

Along the way, aided by an experienced mentor, you will learn how to write a business plan, pitch your idea, assess the competition, develop a business model and raise finance.

Entering is easy! All you have to do is form a team and write a one-page summary of a business or social enterprise idea. The teams with the best ideas will then pitch to a panel of expert judges. The winning team will receive a cash prize of £2500 and the two runners-up will each receive £250.
