Business Plan Competition

Confidentiality

1. All new business ideas and business plans will be reviewed by a panel of judges made up of business professionals, entrepreneurs, and venture capitalists.
2. The only individuals who will have access to business plans will be the Business Plan Committee and the judges of the Pepperdine Business Plan Competition. These judges are professionals who regularly deal with confidential information in the course of their work and have been asked to treat the business plans with the same care and respect for confidentiality that they provide their clients. They will excuse themselves from judging if a conflict of interest arises.
3. Note that the short description of the business idea may be used in public documentation relating to the contest.
4. The pitches and presentations will be made to an audience of peers, investors, faculty, staff and friends of the University at the Drescher Graduate Campus in Malibu.
