2009
Competition
The Bernstein Award was established by Richard Bernstein, a local entrepreneur,
to recognize students who put together well researched and potentially successful business proposals. It is designed to encourage young entrepreneurs to move
forward with their visions and to provide the resources to assist them. Several
award winners have gone on to operate successful businesses.
Any student who is currently enrolled, or has been enrolled, at SU during the
current academic year is eligible to compete – regardless of major or whether the
student is pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree.
Basic Requirement: Create an original proposal for a business
start-up or for the transformation of an existing business.
Awards: The creator of the winning business proposal receives $5,000.
Second place and honorable mention winners receive lesser amounts. This
amount will be determined by the judging committee based on their assessment
of the quality of the business plans.
