Hey All, Entrepreneurs' Connection invites all SCU students to participate the in internal Venture Capital Investment Competition (VCIC) About VCIC ========== The SCU Venture Capital Investment Competition (VCIC) is, in essence, a "reverse business plan competition". Compared to a traditional business plan competition, where teams participate as entrepreneurs seeking venture capital funding, student teams in the VCIC assume the role of venture capitalists and evaluate and "fund" investment opportunities. Select teams evaluate real business opportunities presented by entrepreneurs currently seeking funding, while being judged by experienced venture capitalists. VCIC is a rigorous and enriching experience that any graduate would not want to miss. Also, exciting prizes to be won!
