The 2012 Business Plan Competition has ended!


     

  • A total of 26 business ventures were submitted.
     
  • 20 executives presented their business idea in a two minute pitch to the judges.

  • 4 companies survived the pitch elimination round and submitted comprehensive business plans and presented their business to the judges.
     
  • 2 companies survived the exhausting round of Q&A with the judges and were deemed ready for the the next phase, raising additional seed funding and/or venture capital.

The companies are:

FreezerPharm with Kelly Gentry, Joe Haynes and Jonathan Hedge

and

Socialite with Chris Lampi
 

 With the help of the UW Bothell School of Business and the Enterprise Center, those two companies will attempt to raise the money they need to move from the conceptual to reality. The competition might be over, but for us at the center the work has just begun. We are dedicated to make sure that FreezerPharm and Socialite are ready to convince investors that those two companies are worthy investments.
