Business Presentation Competition Details

Teams should plan on preparing a fifteen-minute stand alone presentation of their business idea or concept. All team members are encouraged to attend the event, and all team members need be part of the presentation at the finals.

The presentation will be interactive, with the judges and the audience asking questions after the presentation for a maximum time of 5 minutes after the presentation.

Teams will be presenting to a panel of judges in a lecture theatre and should expect other competitors and members of the public to be in the audience when making their presentation.

Teams may make use of demonstrations and presentation tools however teams should be advised that their time is limited and they so they shouldn't spend too much time showing off a prototype at the expense of presenting the entire business idea or concept.

Teams are requested to arrive at the lecture theatre before all presentations commence and not to leave until after the final presentation is concluded. Teams are encouraged to invite others to attend this event as spectators and supporters.
