The Enterprize Business Plan Competition kicks off its third year in October, 2001. Please visit us then for updated information on this year's competition. The primary aim for the competition is to increase the number of start-up businesses in Pittsburgh.
Statistics show that start-ups are the largest driver of new jobs in metro areas.
Thus, increasing the number of start-ups in the region will aid job creation and improve Pittsburgh's growth. Building a business environment that facilitates such networking is a key component of highly dynamic regions, such as the Silicon Valley and Austin, Texas. Back to top Benefits EnterPrize is an exciting opportunity for southwestern Pennsylvania to increase the number of start-up businesses that help create new and exciting jobs in the region.
