Baiada Institute 2023 Incubator Competition

Program objectives

The Baiada Institute Incubator Competition is designed to help Drexel student and recent graduate entrepreneurs develop their for-profit or non-profit ideas, receive feedback and mentoring, and compete for cash prizes. It also provides significant opportunities for developing your network, learning how to present your business and developing your public speaking skills.

Rules and deadline

All official competition information, including schedule, prizes, judging criteria, and frequently asked questions are held at http://drexel.edu/baiada/competitions/incubator-competition. Competition rules are at https://drexel.edu/baiada/competitions/rules/.

How to participate

Complete the competition entry form including a submission of a max five minute pitch video (present what you would to a potential investor) and a maximum two page executive summary (you may also submit a full business plan in lieu of the exec summary).

Even if you don’t have all the answers in the application form – don’t worry. Submit your best answer or indicate that you’re still working on that part of your idea.

Judges will evaluate submitted applications and will decide on the final five applicants who will present live during Drexel Future Fest on February 23rd.

Application notes

We suggest that you review the required questions and prepare your answers in a separate document to retain a backup copy and so you can copy+paste answers into the form. You can edit your application anytime until the application deadline date.

Please print to PDF and save a copy of your submitted information prior to hitting Send.
