List of Participating HBCUs/MIs

The participating HBCUs/MIs are institutions that have been invited to organize a business plan competition on their campus and send the winning team to Atlanta. The winning teams will have the opportunity to bring their faculty advisor, dean, and president/chancellor along.

The program will invite and cover the costs of event registration, travel (air/car), hotel, and meals for all students (up to five), one faculty advisor, one dean, and the president/chancellor. If any school wishes to bring additional students, faculty members, and deans, the school will be responsible for covering the actual cost of the additional participants.
