ESI Center supports “Idea Challenge” entrepreneurship contest

On the 16th of May 2010 in the ceremonial hall of Sofia University was the final Idea Challenge Day of the contest for innovative business ideas “Idea Challenge”, organized by the club of the young entrepreneurs “Start It Smart”. The goal of the competition is to attract the young people, who are willing to change the world around them and give a support to realize their innovative ideas. 

More than 40 business projects (some of them active companies) took part in the competition, from which 15 were allowed to the finish. The selection was implemented on strict criteria in four areas:

  • marketability
  • operability
  • innovation
  • effect in the community and environment

The best 15 business ideas were presented during the final part of the competition. The jury selected 5, which won the big prize - mentorship and support with financial and legal consultancy.

ESI Center Bulgaria is among the main sponsors of the contest and will be mentor to the winners in the ICT area.
