伟大的想法哥伦布
什么是大创意哥伦布?
有个想法. 有一组“鲨鱼”. There’s also an audience, access to resources, and money.
Big Idea is our version of Shark Tank. 想法是提前提交的, narrowed down to a group of finalists, and ideas are pitched LIVE in front of an audience and panel of judges. Pitches must be 2 minutes or less. 每个音后跟一个Q&A.
Top ideas will win access and discounts to key resources, 业务指导, 规划服务, and start up money to launch their business in Columbus! Our panel of judges determines the top 5, 和普选(是的, the audience) determines who takes home the top 3 cash prizes!
我们在寻找什么样的想法?
商业或产品创意 你 想要实现! We are looking for creative and innovative ideas that could thrive in Columbus. It can be a brand new idea or an idea that was inspired by something 你 have seen somewhere else. We just want those that want to pursue their idea to step up and submit.
你需要商业计划吗?
不! Your idea could be in the infant stages and 你 want to see what others think or it could be at maturity and 你 just need a little seed money (and resources) to get 你r idea off the ground.
