More importantly, participating students will gain access to the Blackstone LaunchPad program on their campus, to get the support on their entrepreneurship journey and skill-building.
The signature program supports Blackstone LaunchPad’s goal in de-risking entrepreneurship, broadening accessibility, and diversifying engagement with a focus on recruiting underrepresented and under-resourced students to participate.

To apply you must be…

•  A current undergraduate student.
•  The creator or co-creator of the idea.
•  In the idea phase!

If you are already in business with your idea or created a legal entity for the business, then you do NOT qualify. This is an “ideas” competition not a “business” competition.
