Cockroach Recipe Wins $50K Venture Contest
by Tim Berry on April 21, 2007
On this one I get to think like entrepreneur and grandfather at the same time, because last week’s $50K first prize winner at the University of Oregon Intercollegiate International New Venture Competition was a grandfather’s recipe for cockroach bait.
This was a surprise. It’s cockroach bait, not a website, not medical, not electronics, and not even new. Mullis Enterprises, the University of Georgia entry, was also a last-minute entry, invited to join the 19 other finalists only after the 20th finalist dropped out shortly before the finals.
