Wednesday, 8 April 2015, 14:36 Last update: about 10 years ago

For the 14th consecutive year, JCI (Junior Chamber International) Malta is proud to be hosting its Best Business Plan Competition.

The aim of this competition is to encourage young people aged between 18 and 40 to take the plunge and submit their business ideas (both individually or as a group) and by working hand in hand with professionals, make these ideas happen. 

This 14th edition is a revamped version of the competition with a boot camp concept for training sessions and a whole new set of partners who joined JCI Malta on this project.

Sponsored by HSBC Bank Malta PLC and KPMG, endorsed by the ICC (International Chamber of Commerce), and supported by TAKE OFF (the University of Malta Business Incubator), Funding Support, The Concept Stadium and The Edward de Bono Institute for the Design & Development of Thinking, this year's edition of the Best Business Plan Competition offers its participants professional support and benefits to be able to develop an initial business idea further, into a concrete business venture.

By enrolling to this competition, participants will benefit from Training & Guidance Sessions, and Financial Assistance.

The deadline to submit the Initial Business Idea proposal is the 17th April and should include:

  • Title of the Initial Business Idea
  • Brief description of the product and / or service you propose to offer
  • Brief description of the innovative aspects of your proposed business idea

The Initial Business Idea proposals must be written in English and should not be longer than 2,000 words. This must be submitted together with the application form provided in this Info Pack which is downloadable via: http://jci.org.mt/website-pages/business-entrepreneurship/2015-bbp/

JCI Malta believes that the Best Business Plan Competition is the perfect platform to provide aspiring entrepreneurs, with the chance to acquire the basic skills and attributes required to be a successful entrepreneur, such as self-confidence, communication and negotiation skills, networking, initiative and motivation.

Furthermore, participants will stand the chance of winning up to €2,500. However, JCI Malta believes that the monetary award represents only a token for the hard work and dedication which contributes to a long-term success.
