Students at East Tennessee State University (ETSU) have a week to submit their applications for the institution’s annual “iBUCS Student Venture Pitch Competition.” The deadline is March 15 for the event whose name is shorthand for Innovative Buccaneers.

Hosted by the College of Business and Technology, the entrepreneurial start-up competition offers ETSU students the opportunity to win seed money for their innovative and entrepreneurial ideas. Students interested in entering the contest will work to develop a business plan and pitch to be presented to a panel of judges who are passionate about innovation and entrepreneurship. Students are allowed to work as individuals or in teams to submit their idea to the competition.

The competition is scheduled for April 1. More information and a link to the application can be found here.
