Business Plan Competition Finals of May 9, 2024 [Video]

The Fort Worth Business Plan Competition is a celebration of the entrepreneurial spirit that makes Fort Worth so unique. The city was originally settled by wildcatters, pioneers and titans of industry – mavericks whose vision, innovation, and grit echoed through the generations to build and shape what is now one of the fastest growing cities in the country.

Though years have passed since Fort Worth was truly “Where the West Begins”, today’s entrepreneurs and small business owners still embody the same spirit – a spirit that is called to forge new frontiers, blaze new trails, and chase dreams as boundless as the Texas horizon.

Fort Worth’s vibrant community of entrepreneurs is vital to making the area a hub for creative businesses, and the Business Plan Competition exists to set those entrepreneurs up for success. By the end of the competition, participants will have the tools, the strategy, and the mindset to grow their seed of an idea into a flourishing business. It also anchors their roots in a passionate, supportive community of like-minded individuals, mentors, and movers-and-shakers, all well-versed in the area’s business ecosystem and all committed to helping these small businesses grow to their fullest potential.
