Why is there no Venture Capital/ Angle investment firms supplying young Entrepreneurs only?
There are a fair number of entrepreneurship competitions out there, designed for college- and high-school students and often hosted by colleges. I have attended the East Coast Student Entrepreneur Awards program at Fairleigh Dickinson University a couple times. (That’s a regional competition of the Global Student Entrepreneur Awards now — the Web address is below. You might find a regional competition near you.) In these competitions, it’s not about winning. The prize is only a couple of $K US. But the audience is filled with angels, venture guys, CEOs and other movers and shakers. It’s a good plan to get your business plan in there. And oh yeah: unless your business is selling hoodies, you better change out your profile picture. The movers and shakers will look at it.
