The City’s Mississauga Business Enterprise Centre (MBEC) is challenging high school students, who have an entrepreneurial spirit, to enter the Ninth Annual Business Plan Challenge for a chance to win a $1,500 first prize.
Mississauga high school students are invited to submit a business plan for their entrepreneurial idea. “This is an opportunity for students to explore self-employment and potentially become their own boss,” said Heidi Brown, MBEC’s manager of Small Business.
Business plans can be submitted via email to mbec@mississauga.ca or in person at the MBEC offices on the fourth floor of the Mississauga Central Library at 301 Burnhamthorpe Road. The submission deadline is Monday, June 30.
Students can also visit the City of Mississauga High School Business Plan Challenge group on www.facebook.com. “Log in and join the group,” encourages Brown. “You’ll be surprised at how much you can learn just by sharing information.”
The Mississauga Business Enterprise Centre is part of the City’s Economic Development Office and is supported by private and public-sector partners. It is considered Mississauga’s one-stop business resource centre. For information on MBEC services and resources call 905-615-4460.
