Teams from various schools in the National Capital Region (NCR)
and Region IV-A submitted their business cases that included
a big idea on an innovation they wanted to introduce and sell.

chosen to be part of the boot camp and competition.

be mentored by top industry experts from the national
government, private sector, and start-up sector, who also

entrepreneurs were given the opportunity to sell their products
online and were judged based on the quality of their business
cases and sales volume. The winners were given cash prizes to
further expand their businesses.
