About the program · 1 linked sources

The Center for Entrepreneurship runs the WSU Business Plan Competition as a real-world exercise in building a team, writing a plan, and pitching. The 2026 page says the competition is hybrid. Collegiate-league rules say at least one member of a WSU team must be a full-time undergraduate, and graduate students may also be on the team. An open league selects five teams from outside WSU.

Also known as: WSU BPC
