GIST (Global Innovation through Science and Technology), a partner of the Founder Institute, will be accepting applications for their annual competition that attracts the most promising entrepreneurs from emerging economies. Online public voting and entrepreneurship experts decide who competes in the Tech-I Finals, a highly anticipated event at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit.

Tech-I is designed to help science and technology entrepreneurs ages 18-40 advance their innovations at both the Idea and Startup Stages through training, mentorship, networking opportunities, and access to capital. Thirty finalists win a free trip to attend the 2015 Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) to compete for individual prizes up to $15,000 USD and have a chance to network with angel investors and venture capitalists. All finalists earn three months of mentorship after the GES.

GIST is accepting applications until March 27th. Just click the link to submit your executive summary and a short video. Click here to apply for the GIST Tech-I Competition!
