Youth Business Development Competition (YBD) by Jo Hill. Read more in Getting Noticed

We were sent this notice today from the Skoll Centre.....

The MBA students and YBD committee of Oxford University's SAID Business School have just launched this competition. 

It represents an opportunity for youth between 16-21 from all over the globe to try their skills at developing business concepts of social benefit. One-page submissions submitted by groups of 3/4 need to be in by March 31st along with the application form.

Shortlisted candidates will then receive personal support and mentoring from individual MBA students from May to the end of July, to help them expand their concepts into viable 7-10 page plans.

The eventual winner will be awarded £2000 of 'seed capital' money to launch their ideas in practice. I'm sure in some cases, the funds available might cover
all the project's needs - we're looking for simple but doable ideas with clear community benefit.
