    Application and Timing

    2025 path in the story: applications opened February 3 and closed February 28, with the expo on May 1, 2025, and workshops from June to July. The 2026 page lists April 29, 2026, 3:00–5:00 p.m.

    Participants

    CSN student entrepreneurs. The 2025 story says forty students would be recognized.

    Funding and Equity

    2025 story: five $1,000 cash prizes and thirty-five $100 bookstore vouchers, credited to the state and Blackstone LaunchPad. The 2026 event page does not repeat the amounts. The story describes prizes, not equity. funding_max records the 2025 cash prize, not a confirmed 2026 purse.

    Recent Activity

    The 2026 event page confirms the expo returned and marks April 29, 2026 as passed.
