Do you have an entrepreneurial idea that explores how business can be used as a force for good in society? At Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, the belief that business can be a powerful force for societal good is not just a vision—it’s a mission. Through initiatives like the Dialogue Project, Fuqua seeks to equip future leaders to address pressing challenges facing the world.
The New Ideas Competition invites undergraduate students to propose innovative solutions showcasing how business ideas can positively impact communities, industries, and the environment. Winners receive an all expenses paid trip to Duke where they present their idea, engage with business leaders, and network with members of our community.
For entrepreneurial students passionate about making a difference, this competition offers a unique platform to turn vision into action. The application is now open and the deadline to apply is January 21, 2025. Grand-prize winners will visit campus from April 3-6, 2025.
