Event Actions
The second stage of the student UVA Entrepreneurship Cup, the Discovery Competition, is all about customer and product development and is based on the principles of effectuation. By focusing upon the “fit” between customer needs or wants and the project’s product or service, as well as the personal skills, connections and effort students bring to this challenge, this stage of the competition requires students to—and rewards students who—demonstrate that they have taken steps to “de-risk” their idea, perhaps the most crucial step in the startup process. Five winning ventures will take home $5,000 each!
