See 2009 entries here.
Got a big idea? Then why are you keeping it to yourself?
Pitch your big idea on video (under two minutes, please) and send it to us. We’ll stream the 20 best videos and allow you to vote for your favorites.
The top 10 registered finalists will be invited to the Entrepreneurs Conference + Expo where they will pitch their idea to a venture capitalist, a BE 100s executive, a BLACK ENTERPRISE magazine editor, and a live audience. No business plan, no PowerPoint presentation, just you and your idea.
The entrepreneur who rates highest with our panel of judges will win a power package of products and services, courtesy of our event sponsors, that will help turn that big idea into a reality.

Companies spend a lot of time studying up on baby boomers, Generation X and Generation Y, knowing that these younger generations make up the bulk of their consumers. Through a mix of offline and online advertising and marketing techniques, companies come up with campaigns designed to reach these consumers and keep them coming back for more.
