In recent years, innovation and entrepreneurship competition is in full swing, but many people have different views on this kind of competition, with different opinions, but the benefits brought by innovation and entrepreneurship to China in recent years are obvious to all. No matter from the micro-individual or macro-national level, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Maybe I met some unfairness in one or several competitions. I hope I can treat it rationally, and don't all my efforts come to nothing! Not all injustice will be covered up!
Innovation and entrepreneurship competitions have mushroomed in colleges and universities. It is precisely because the innovation and entrepreneurship competition, as an important carrier of innovation and entrepreneurship education in colleges and universities, has had a far-reaching impact on higher education and has gradually become an important indicator to assess the quality of dual-innovation education and evaluate the quality of dual-innovation teachers. The Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition not only produced a batch of outstanding young entrepreneurs and outstanding entrepreneurial projects, but also promoted the reform of China's education model and provided a steady stream of innovation power for the construction of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.
As far as college students are concerned, the competitions with high gold content are mainly China "Creating Youth" and "internet plus" College Students' Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, as well as "Three Innovations Competition", "China Creating Arts", "Dongsheng Cup International Entrepreneurship Competition" and "Xiexin Cup International College Students' Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition" and so on. Entrepreneurship competition can be described as "all-round", because the selection mechanism of entrepreneurship competition is similar, so as long as a kind of entrepreneurship competition is done well, it can be copied from 0 to 1 and then to 1.
The full name of "Creating Youth" is "Creating Youth" National University Student Entrepreneurship Competition, which is the product of the "Challenge Cup" reform. After the reform, the "Challenge Cup" is divided into "big challenge" and "small challenge", so the "Innovation Spring" is also called "small challenge", which is held once every two years, alternating with "big challenge". The "Challenge Cup" series of competitions is known as the "Olympic Games" for college students' scientific and technological innovation and entrepreneurship in China. It is the most popular national competition among college students in China at present, and it is also the most representative, authoritative, exemplary and instructive college student competition in China. There are three main tracks in the competition: business plan competition, business practice challenge and public welfare business competition.
China "internet plus" College Students' Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition is the most famous college students' innovation and entrepreneurship competition in China, covering the largest number of colleges and universities, applying for the largest number of projects, participating in the largest number of students, and getting involved in the largest number of international projects, which is highly valued by the state. Committee member the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and Sun Chunlan, Vice Premier of the People's Republic of China attended the China "internet plus" Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition twice in a row, which shows the importance of the competition. There are five main tracks in the competition: the high school leader track, the "Youth Red Dream Tour" track, the vocational education track, the international track and the budding stage. (Each event can only participate in one track)
High school track: for the majority of undergraduate students. "Red Youth Dream Tour" track: The project should be innovative, effective and sustainable in promoting the economic and social development of old revolutionary areas, poverty-stricken areas and urban and rural communities. Vocational education track: Only students from vocational colleges (including vocational colleges and secondary vocational schools) can sign up for the competition. International Tour: Domestic universities recommend foreign students, overseas alumni, teachers and students from foreign cooperative universities to participate. Germination plate: ordinary high school students can participate in the activities related to the germination plate of the fifth competition.
Many innovation and entrepreneurship competitions explicitly require that "projects that have won gold and silver awards in the past are not allowed to participate again". However, it is actually feasible to optimize the previous works and re-enter, or it is also an ability to directly replace the previous works with new packaging methods. (Although this method is not recommended, it is understandable to use this method if you really can't find a suitable project. )
Entrepreneurial activities have a wide range of topics, as long as they are legal business operations and social welfare services, they can participate in almost all industries. Give a chestnut: It is not simply to open a few storefronts, and you can win the grand prize by making a profit of several million a year. On the contrary, the probability of winning the prize is much greater than the former.
Therefore, before the project is established, it must be clear whether the project is novel, unique and unrepeatable. As long as you meet one of these three attributes, you will have the basis for participating in the competition. The more these three attributes, the more likely you are to win the grand prize. Give another chestnut: selling brown sugar steamed bread can also win a gold medal. With its unique formula, novel marketing model and unrepeatable market priority, Yunnan "Luo Xiaoman" won the national gold medal in the third "internet plus" University Student Entrepreneurship Competition. This example proves that not only high-tech projects can win prizes, but ordinary projects can win prizes as long as they are close to people's livelihood and grounded.
As an entrepreneurial competition, it is very important to write an excellent business plan. In college, many students have hardly been exposed to business books, so they are anxious when signing up for the business competition.
Writing a business plan is definitely not just adding some pictures to the text code. The quality of the business plan directly determines whether the project can rush into the provincial competition defense, so the format and typesetting design of the business plan should be considered first. Just like the covers of the following two styles of business plans, it is obvious that the first impression on the right is profound and will make people feel like reading on. Just like the cover, the typesetting of business plan content should be based on simple primary colors or harmonious colors, with prominent core, which makes people feel refreshed and pleasing to the eye after browsing.
The configuration required to write an excellent business plan: 1 typesetting design member, 1 graphic design member, 1 professional financial personnel, 3-4 members with strong text editing ability, and of course one member can have the above ability. With the above configuration, it can make it very simple to write a business plan with dozens of pages. Especially typesetting and art design are very important.
When you have the above membership configuration, you can be ready to start a big battle. So how to write a business book? Most students have never been exposed to business plans, so the best way to write is to imitate excellent business plans. Imitation is not plagiarism, it needs to join the discussion of the members and their own thinking. It's best to make an outline before writing, then assign tasks to members, and everyone is responsible for writing a part, and finally merge.
After the first merger, team members discuss the whole text, find out the problems in the text, and strive for each part to be close to the core of the project. Then modify the task assignment. This task requires changing the order of the members who originally wrote the article. Repeat this operation until the modification is satisfactory. I think it is not feasible after two or three revisions. I once saw a national gold medal project, which was revised 20 times before participating in the national competition, so it is essential to work hard to win the grand prize. (Reply to "Plan" and win the national gold medal 100 business plans)
When revising the project plan for many times, members may be required to pay attention to polishing the written language, so as not to make the written language contain typos, grammatical errors, improper words and colloquialism. However, this kind of review is more difficult for most students and requires a strong knowledge of Chinese. I want to mention here that we should pay special attention to the use of colloquial words such as "de" and "le" when writing texts. Many times these words are unnecessary to use in the text.
Especially when the judges are in the provincial primary election, most of them look at the text format first and then at the category. If there are obvious mistakes in format and category, then months or even last year's efforts will come to nothing. (Language processing course of scientific papers replies to "language processing")
The attachment of the project book is the part that can best reflect whether the project has landed or not, so having a plump attachment is equivalent to stepping on the podium with one foot. General attachments include business licenses, patents, papers, works certificates, professional certificates, award-winning certificates, honorary certificates, sales contracts, intention contracts, investment contracts, media reports, photos of achievements, etc. The following are the appendices of three national gold medals.
Speaking of this, many students will ask, "What about the entrepreneurial planning group and the creative group of the contest? Not at all. There are not many attachments to add. "
As a start-up and planning group, there will be fewer attachments that can really be added, but the project is dead and people are alive. No matter what group you join, it is feasible to apply for a company license as an attachment. At present, the threshold for applying for a company is relatively low and there is no need to spend money. You only need a copy of the real estate license to find a school to approve the office space of a college student pioneer park (100% can be approved), and then you can get it in 3-4 months. (Note: Before registration, you can check online whether the company name you want to register is registered by others. The name of a registered company cannot contain English or the word "public welfare". If you have no intention of starting a business after the game, you should go to the industry and commerce to cancel the company in time. Before cancellation, the company seal needs to be engraved, and the place where the seal is engraved can be engraved, usually one in 60 yuan. Such expenses can be reimbursed by the school. )
In addition to the company license, you can also apply for patents, papers and software works in time. Although you can't get the certificate in a short time, you can get the patent acceptance notice and thesis employment notice in a short time after application, which can also be used as attachments to a certain extent. There are also some photos and certificates of cooperation that can be obtained through some channels.
I have seen some projects sign fake cooperation intentions and fake sales contracts with some companies through the network of students and teachers, but the stamp is true. This is against the competitive virtue of college students, so I strongly suggest that you don't study, don't study, really don't study, and don't study such behavior seriously. I advise you not to do this here, but others don't know what you did.
When the business plan is almost written, the ppt of the project should also be followed up in time. Like the business plan, ppt pays attention to color matching and typesetting design, and it is best to make the judges have the desire to continue reading. So it is also important to find a member who is good at ppt. Generally speaking, members who are good at text typesetting design can do ppt well. If ppt is not done well, compare with others, just like seller show and buyer show. The following two styles of the same project are clear at a glance.
When doing ppt, we should not only highlight the social pain points that the project needs to solve, but also clearly show how to solve this problem creatively and effectively. Many times, it is very effective to add pictures and animations to show problems and solutions, which can leave a deep impression on the judges. However, many teams lack animators and can't even make better ppt. I saw someone looking for someone to do ppt and animation on a treasure before. Ppt quotation 1000- 1500, animation for 800 seconds (just like robbing money), so if you can find a classmate who can do animation and PPT at school, don't let him go. This kind of person is also a treasure in future competitions.
However, if there are no members in the team who are really good at ppt, you can learn from other people's excellent competition ppt and imitate it in style and typesetting. The general imitation effect is also good. (Reply to "ppt" PPT template)
3. Grinding the gun before the game
The common defense time distribution of entrepreneurship competition is: 5+3 minutes, 6+3 minutes and 8+3 minutes, of which 3 minutes is the time for judges to ask questions. Generally, the number of people who take the stage to defend is controlled at about 3, and the three people are responsible for ppt, technology (mode) and finance respectively. The defense clothes on the stage can be formal clothes, corporate culture shirts and special clothes (related to the main body of the project).
The basic sequence of roadshows is to expose social pain points, introduce products, services and profit models, and then technical barriers, core advantages and operating conditions can be arbitrarily interspersed among them. Roadshows had better start with stories, telling good stories is half the battle, and good stories are more likely to cause a sensation, thus replacing products or services. For example, small things, customer stories, team stories, entrepreneurial hardships and so on. The story should be logical and echo the products and services. At the same time, we should also learn to speak with numbers, and use data information to be more convincing. Never use technical language to express the whole answer, skillfully use "life scenes" to combine the project with life examples, which is more vivid and easy to impress the judges.
At present, all the work is well prepared, and the next step is to simulate roadshow practice. The simulated roadshow should be carried out in accordance with the formal entry process, including time, dress and station. At school, students whose teachers have nothing to do with some projects can be invited as judges, because students who have nothing to do with projects may have a close first impression after listening to the roadshow, so their questions will play a constructive role to some extent. Repeated simulation of roadshows not only helps to optimize ppt, but also helps to exercise the adaptability of respondents. If you have no defensive experience, you can look at other people's defense.
Finally, let's talk about the routine of the official roadshow. Before the competition begins, prepare a kind of folded booklet similar to that posted on the street, which is printed with the relevant categories of your own project (equivalent to advertisements). In addition, it is necessary to customize some small gifts printed with corporate culture (such as USB flash drives and key chains) to be sandwiched in the brochure and handed over to the judges when entering the venue. Students, this is definitely not a bribe, absolutely not!
