LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE via COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--Nov 30, 2004--The Lloyd Greif Center for Entrepreneurial Studies and Center for Technology Commercialization at the University of Southern California (USC) Marshall School of Business today announced the launch of an annual Business Plan Competition with a $25,000 first prize. The competition is open to all graduate and undergraduate students and researchers on both the USC University Park and USC Health Sciences campuses. Submissions will be judged by a panel of experts and will be based on the quality and persuasiveness of the plan, the quality of the team and intent to launch, market validation, and the quality of the business model.

''We want to recognize, reward, and encourage entrepreneurship on the USC campus,'' said Dr. Kathleen Allen, director of the Center for Technology Commercialization at the Marshall School of Business. ''In this first year, we are opening the competition to all types of businesses and are looking for USC entrepreneurs who are serious about starting their businesses.''

Orientation sessions for the competition will be held on December 2 at 5:00 p.m. in the Greif Entrepreneurship Center in Bridge Hall One. A second orientation will be held on January 12 at 5:00. These sessions will be followed by workshops in February to prepare participants to submit a first-class business plan at the end of March, 2005. The plans will be independently reviewed by judges during the month of April, and the field of entrants will be reduced to several finalists who will present their plans before a panel of
experts. First and second-place winners will be announced and the prizes presented at the Marcia Israel Award Banquet on April 28, 2005.

''This is a rare opportunity for everyone at the university,'' said Gene Miller, Director of the Greif Center. ''We look forward to building the entrepreneurial spirit at USC.'' More information and full details of the prize can be found at www.usc.edu/techalliance/BPC_home or at www.marshall.usc.edu/entrepreneur .

Founded in 1972, the Lloyd Greif Center for Entrepreneurial Studies is one of the leading centers for the teaching and practice of entrepreneurship. The Center for Technology Commercialization at the Marshall School of Business is a leader in programs and processes for commercializing technologies.
