  • Teams need to have between three to six members
  • You have four weeks to work on the challenge
  • You need to keep purchase receipts to track spending
  • You need to deliver a short presentation on your idea after the event

Full list of the rules will be outlined during the launch of the event. If you wish to take part, signup via the CareerHub events page. 

£100 Challenge - Southend

We had many creative business ideas cut a good profit during our previous competitions. Examples include:

  • Food and drink sales
  • Date nights
  • Events
  • Valentine's day card delivery 
  • Mystery box sales

Whether you come up with your own idea, or try something that is tested, there is no set recipe to win. If you have any questions about the challenge email startups@essex.ac.uk. We look forward to seeing you there!
