About the Competition

Student teams of entrepreneurs face off for a chance to win cash prizes totaling $18,500 – including a $10,000 grand prize – in the Pepperdine University Business Plan Competition. A distinguished panel of entrepreneurs and venture capitalists will judge the competition and provide invaluable feedback and networking opportunities to the teams.
The business plan competition reflects the Graziadio School hallmarks of experience-driven and entrepreneurial education – giving students a chance to apply the knowledge they’ve learned to fulfill their dreams of launching their own business. Students from all schools of Pepperdine are invited to compete.
Socially Minded Entrepreneur Award
A special $1,000 prize will be awarded to the team whose plan best embodies the theme of social responsibility in business. The Socially Minded Entrepreneur Award is presented by the Graziadio School’s student-run Values-Centered Leadership Lab, an organization dedicated to furthering corporate social responsibility and ethics in business.
The Pepperdine University Business Plan Competition is presented by the Graziadio School of Business and Management and the Palmer Center for Entrepreneurship and the Law.
