Budding entrepreneur? Grab a camera - Nashville Business Journal

The Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development is now accepting entries for its second-annual “What Makes You an Entrepreneur” video competition.

Entries will be accepted through Oct. 31 through the Tennessee Open for Business website, http://tnopenforbusiness.org. Finalists will be selected from five categories: Main Street/downtown; home-based; agri-business; arts and entertainment and innovation. The statewide winner will receive a $500 prize and a marketing package worth approximately $2,000.

The video competition is part of the state’s Global Entrepreneurship Week celebration, scheduled for Nov. 15 - 21. Winners from the video contest will be announced during that time.

“Last year, Tennessee made its mark as one of the top participating states for Global Entrepreneurship Week,” said Matt Kisber, commissioner of Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development. “With the second installment of the entrepreneurship video competition, we hope to continue our custom of recognizing entrepreneurs, who are the backbone of our state’s economy.”
