Big Idea Winners at Queen’s Management School
Congratulations to our What's the Big Idea Winners! Competition was tough with over 90 entries submitted and the judging panel were highly impressed with the creativity and innovation shown. Queen’s Management School had 16 finalists and 5 winners
The ‘What’s the Big Idea?’ competition is open to all students at Queen’s who have exciting and novel business ideas. It's an amazing platform for students to launch their business ideas and to get the chance to earn some serious cash!
This year's competition was fierce with over 90 applicants. Our winners were announced at a special ceremony on Wednesday 9 December, with 11 awards and a prize pot of £2,800 being awarded.
A big thanks also to our sponsors PWC, The Graduate School and Ormeau Business Park for their support.
Congratulations to all of our students!
