*Description [250 words on why this strategy : A competitive platform which scales various disciplines and fields, in which students can easily showcase their creative innovations in front of a collection of local Venture Capitalists. After passing a preliminary, one-page application process where applicants lay out their idea, progress, and needs, they can be chosen as one of 30 teams to present at a "Devil's Dome" competition. During the competition, each team will get five to ten minutes to present their idea to a panel of potential business partners. In contrast to the traditional Shark Tank environment, the panel of potential funders will then have a week to review and respond to the teams who they think are the best investments. The notion here is that each team will solve this gap on your campus]earn the opportunity to present to competent and connected local business owners who can either help with funding, offer mentorship and/or connect the team to someone who may be interested in the venture.&nbsp;*Team Leader:: [Either your name, TBD or create a title assigned to the person who volunteers]Eden Shuster*Milestones: [A set &nbsp;**Assemble a team of bullets that characterize leaders who are interested in putting the work that would likely need project together &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 2/10/15**Put together a more extensive description and mission statement &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 2/25/15**Reach out to university officials to help gain support and credibility &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 3/05/15**Reach out to be executed, along with mmpotential local Venture Capitalists (Confirm > 5) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 3/25/15**Create a Marketing plan and application process &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;4/15/15**Open the competition for potential applicants &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;5/10/15**Put together and organize a competition which will take place on &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 8/10/15-8/25/yy]15
