The GI Challenge is a challenge of youth entrepreneurship for local 15-25 year olds.
Young people – some of whom are armed with ideas and others simply have a pep in their step – are now applying to be part of the competition which starts on 14 March.
All participants will work in teams and receive training and mentoring on how to start their own business, with successful teams making a pitch before receiving seed capital to get their ventures off the ground.
When: Saturday, 14 March 2015
Where: Sunshine Coast Airport
