HULT PRIZE COMES TO FUTO, Owerri

Hult Prize – the world’s largest students’ competition for the creation of new ideas for social businesses which based in Boston | San Francisco | London | Dubai | Shanghai, comes to our campus: Federal University of Technology, Owerri.

This brilliant bold feat was made possible after one of our own, a 500 level student
of Information Management Technology –  Ibiam Chimezie was selected a Campus Director by the Foundation in London, thereby putting FUTO on the global students’ map.

Beaming with smiles, he believes that his fellow FUTOites has all it takes and
urges them to come all out to participate to win this year’s Hult Prize, as full time
awareness campaigns are in top gear in and around the University community to
hosting this annual event, which awards USD 1Million in start-up seed funding.

This event, in partnership with the United Nations is looking for the top team(s)
be it BSc, MSc or PhD from this intra-campus event that develops the most radical
and breakthrough idea to solve one of our world’s toughest social challenges, and that will automatically advance to compete in one of 15 regional Finals happening
around the world next March.

The winning team from each host city will then move onto a Summer Business Accelerator, where participants will receive mentorship, advisory and strategic planning as they create prototypes and set-up to launch their new social business.
A final round of competition will be hosted in September 2019 at the United Nations Headquarters, New York, where the winning team will be awarded the $1,000,000 Prize. (360Million Naira).
