Business startups throughout the mid-Atlantic are eligible to apply for their share of $125,000. Selected entrepreneurs will have the chance to present their proposals to the program’s advisory board for consideration Friday, May 9, at SU’s Perdue Hall. The deadline for submissions is Friday, March 28.
During the first round, participants will pitch their business ideas to the board. Those chosen to move on to the second round will have the opportunity to make more in-depth presentations.
