The National Teen Entrepreneurs’ Business Plan Competition, hosted by Project ECHO, challenges students to think and act like real entrepreneurs. Participants develop and pitch their startup ideas to a panel of judges, competing against top student teams while gaining valuable feedback and refining their business strategies in a real-world setting.

For over 25 years, Project ECHO has delivered hands-on, project-based entrepreneurship education that builds critical thinking, financial literacy, problem-solving, and teamwork skills. This competition is an opportunity to showcase your ideas, strengthen your business acumen, and take a meaningful step toward your entrepreneurial future.

Participation is limited to students who are pre-enrolled in the program.
