TigerLaunch@Plug&Play will be offered to the top 2 teams (if one or both turns down the offer, it goes to the next best teams, and so on). This will be an opportunity for the teams to get free office space for the summer at Plug and Play Tech Center in Silicon Valley, gain free legal advice from some of the best startup lawyers in the world, mentorship from VCs, entrepreneurs and CEOs in the Valley, and have the strong possibility of venture capital funding by the end of Summer 2009. If you think we're joking, check out Plug and Play's connections to the Valley's best at http://www.plugandplaytechcenter.com. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
TigerLaunch is Princeton University's Business Plan Competition. The competition is sponsored by the Princeton Entrepreneurship Club and Howard Cox '64. The focus of TigerLaunch is to provide an integrative learning opportunity. Students gain practical experience by writing a plan for a new business venture and presenting and discussing it with judges whose backgrounds include venture capital, investment banking, and entrepreneurship.
