The Atlantic Coast Conference InVenture Prize is a collaborative effort by institutional leadership from the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC). It represents an opportunity to stimulate undergraduate entrepreneurial activity and increase student-faculty engagement, to celebrate and highlight the exceptional creativity and ingenuity of our students, and to inspire a greater sense of camaraderie across the conference.
The ACC InVenture Prize is an innovation competition in which teams of undergraduates representing each ACC university pitch their inventions or businesses before a live audience and a panel of judges. Teams will compete for $30,000 in prizes and a chance to be the next ACCIP winner. Fifteen university teams will pitch during the preliminary round on April 5th, after which five teams will be chosen to advance to the final round on April 6th broadcast live on television and streamed online.
