A Little Friendly Competition

For this episode, The Low Down spoke to some of Columbia’s great entrepreneurs, all of whom were finalists in the 2015 Columbia Venture Competition. These entrepreneurs competed for a top prize of $250,000 at the #StartupColumbia Festival. The objective? To give the judges compelling evidence of market acceptance for their value propositions. Nearly a year later, we asked each of these companies what they’re doing, how placing in the competition has affected their business, and what it means to them to be Columbia entrepreneurs.
