The Power of One Idea
In 2009, an enterprising MBA student at Hult International Business School named Ahmad Ashkar had a compelling idea—leverage the crowd to generate startup ideas from young people to sustainably solve the world’s most critical social challenges. Today, the Hult Prize is the world’s foremost platform for the creation and launch of for-good, for-profit startups emerging from un
iversity. In nearly a decade, the movement has deployed more than $50M of capital into the sector and mobilized more than one million young people to re-think the future of business as it continues to breed disruptive innovation on college and university campuses across 100 plus countries. The Hult Prize Foundation been called the”Nobel Prize for Students” and has been featured in a TIME Magazine Cover Story highlighting the “Top 5 Ideas Changing the World.”
And today we are proudly enough to announce that MCU will held its own campus Hult Prize where teams of 3-4 members from the school will be participating in the campus qualifier round to then be chosen by the school to represent Ming Chuan University in the Regional Round at Shanghai, China.
