Mississippi State's Entrepreneurship Week, which is hosted by the university's Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, is one of the Southeast's most exciting student startup competitions. This year's event takes place April 6-10 in Colvard Student Union's Fowlkes Auditorium.

In its fourth year, MSU eWeek 2015 will see as many as 30 teams from nearly every college on campus compete for cash prizes totaling more than $40,000 in seed funding, including a top prize of $10,000. Business model pitches are evaluated on company technology, management, financials and market by 30 industry-respected leaders serving as judges from companies all across the region.

The eWeek competitions are open to all MSU students from all majors and levels. Last year, 61 percent of students participating were part of teams awarded seed money towards building their companies. Apply online today at http://ecenter.msstate.edu/eweek.
