Competition Eligibility
To be eligible, teams must meet the following requirements:
Validation: We are looking for teams that have already performed validation research for their ideas, at least locally. This event is not an idea competition. The applicants must have started validating the business idea among potential customers, the product must be innovative and enjoy a growth potential independently of local market trends as far as possible.
Team size: Teams must have at least three maximum five total members. Participants can only be a member of one team.
Student teams: Teams may contain non-university member participants. However, the majority of the team members should be registered Corvinus or BME students. A “registered student” is a student who has been accepted into a degree program at Corvinus or BME and is working toward the completion of that degree by taking at least one course in the 2022/23 academic year.
Fresh project: Teams must present an original idea for an enterprise that has not existed before 2022. Teams must be in a “pre-incubator” form and must not have received financial backing by professional third-party business angels or venture capitalists.
How to Apply?
Interested? We’d love to see you pitch! We request all applicants to submit a short video via our website in English that gives us a sense of who you are and how your solution would be propelling the future of the world. Video submissions should cover the following points in max. 3 minutes:
- Your startup’s value proposition
- Problem(s) your product and/or service is solving
- The validation you have already conducted: process and results: significant insights, surprising, and pivot you decided consequently
- Why your startup is a good fit for the Danube Cup 2023 International Entrepreneurial Pitch Competition for University Students along the Danube
