Applications opened this week for Spark Bowl, a “Shark Tank”-style competition hosted by Delaware Valley University, the Central Bucks Chamber of Commerce and Startup Bucks.
Finalists will pitch their ideas and compete for monetary prizes on Nov. 16 in DelVal’s Life Sciences Building Auditorium.
Businesses that are interested in participating can enter their business at delval.edu/spark.
Applicants should also email sparkbowl@delval.edu to receive any updates on the application process and include the business’ name in the subject line.
The application period closes on Sept. 15.
“Spark Bowl is the outcome of a unique and innovative cooperation between the Central Bucks Chamber of Commerce, Startup Bucks and the Department of Business and Information Management here at DelVal,” said Tanya Casas, Dean of The School of Business, Arts, and Sciences. “The finalists competing work together with an advisor from DelVal’s Small Business and Entrepreneurship Center and with a student team. This collaboration provides students with a real opportunity to see first-hand some of the planning and problem solving that real businesses confront.”
