3. Regional winners will be awarded and go on to compete in the
national competition, which will take place during Global
Entrepreneurship Week in November.
Who qualifies?
To enter the competition, you have to be:
Between the ages of 18 and 35.

What can you win?
Besides the great exposure you get by being in the competition, there are a range of fantastic prizes to help you get your business off the ground. This includes Business Partners Limited Mentorship for both the regional and national winners, as well as a R20 000 cash prize for the national winner, and more.
