Dear All,
TiE is pleased to launch the TiE International Business Plan Competition (TIBPC), an international program designed in conjunction with the Rice University Business Plan Competition to give graduate-level university students in Asia and Europe a real-world experience to fine tune their business plans and elevator pitches to be able to generate funding to successfully commercialize their product and launch their startups.
TiE Islamabad will host a level 1 competition after scouting local universities for perspective participants. TiE Brussels will host the Finals (level 2) and the winner will be guaranteed a place at the Rice University Business Plan Competition , the largest and richest intercollegiate business plan competition in the world, hosted at Rice University in Houston, Texas (level 3).
It is going to be a great opportunity for students from Pakistan to garner investment and become entrepreneur even before stepping out of the college. Similarly even entrepreneurs, professionals and faculty members with great plan can form a team and participate in this prestigious competition.
You are requested to circulate the information among students and individuals who want to avail this wonderful opportunity.
