We are thrilled to announce that Tipzy has clinched the 2nd place position at the highly esteemed Entrepreneurship Pelican Cup, solidifying our commitment to innovation and entrepreneurial excellence!
The Pelican Cup stands as the premier business plan competition for the state of Louisiana, boasting one of the largest cash prizes in the nation. With the goal of inspiring participants and the community to think entrepreneurially, the competition rewards creativity, professionalism, and hard work.
Open to full- or part-time undergraduate and graduate students statewide, the Pelican Cup required participants to submit a formal written business plan, meticulously judged by seasoned business owners and investors. Six finalists were then selected to deliver in-person oral presentations to top-tier entrepreneurs, showcasing their innovative ideas and strategic vision.
At the heart of the competition lies the spirit of collaboration and interdisciplinary synergy, as students from all colleges and majors are encouraged to compete. It is through this diversity of thought and expertise that the best teams often emerge, demonstrating the power of collective innovation.
As the 2nd place team, Tipzy has been awarded a remarkable $25,000 cash prize, a testament to the ingenuity and hard work of our team members. This achievement not only validates the viability of Tipzy's business model but also highlights the potential impact of our platform in revolutionizing the bar industry.
