The 2023 Milken-Penn GSE EBPC unveils new incentives and more value to competitors than years past:
- Dedicated advisor for venture and pitch development. Through the Catalyst @ Penn GSE virtual accelerator, Catapult, finalists will receive a complimentary, personalized assessment of their venture’s development and get matched with a dedicated, strategic advisor to advance their venture and perfect their pitch before the final competition.
- Live, in-person finals. For the first time since 2019, finalists will deliver their pitch live and in-person, gaining more exposure among investors and potential customers at the Finals in October.
- Promotional opportunities. Finalists will have multiple opportunities for in-person and virtual promotion, including participation in the Finalist Showcase in association with ISTE’s global conference in Philadelphia this June, and digital promotion across Catalyst’s multimedia programming.
- More eligible ventures—from $0.00 to $1.5 million in revenue. No revenue needed! We're also expanding eligible ventures to include those who have generated up to $1,500,000 in revenue in the last twelve months.
Cash & Prizes
Since 2010, the Milken-Penn GSE Education Business Plan Competition has awarded more than $1.8 million in cash and prizes to education ventures making an impact through innovation. Each year, approximately $150,000 in cash and prizes are awarded to at least four winners, including the Michael & Lori Milken Family Foundation Grand Prize. Applications are narrowed to up to ten finalists, who compete in a final pitch competition—to be held live in New York City this year as part of EdTech Week!
