'''Venture Plan Competition''' A competition offered for undergraduate students to promote entrepreneurship and new ventures. The competition was started in 2009 at Bucknell University and has awarded more than $17,000 to students creating new ventures. Students participating in the competition are responsible for creating a full written Venture Plan and have an opportunity to present it to a panel of seasoned judges that come from a variety of backgrounds including start-ups, business strategy, and venture capital. Venture Plan Competition offers students a complementary and expanded experience to the pitch competition and pits Bucknell students against students from Keystone Innovation Zone (KIZ) partner institutions Bloomsburg and Susquehanna Universities. This competition is currently organized by the Greater Susquehanna KIZ.
