One of my favorite techniques is to have entrepeneurs check the universities in their geographical area -- most business schools have such competitions annually. Sometimes outside entrepreneurs are able to compete, and sometimes it's possible for entrepreneurs to qualify as "students" without being full time students. The exposure, in any event, is really tremendous.<br/>MaryAnn Shank<br/>www.businessplanmaster.com Isabel,
