D.I.C.E. Challenge
Much like the hit television series Shark Tank, the D.I.C.E. (Dreams, Ingenuity, Creativity, Entrepreneurship) Challenge is a regional competition in which high school students are tasked to create a business product or service, develop a business plan, and pitch their idea to a panel of seasoned entrepreneurs who serve as judges. Business ideas and plans are evaluated and ranked, with the top 3 teams receiving funding to support their business.
The goal of the D.I.C.E. Challenge is to not only inspire high school students to learn about entrepreneurship and see small business creation and ownership as a viable career goal, but also help students understand the vital role an entrepreneur plays within a community: increasing economic growth, providing access to unique goods and services, and even promoting social change.
Genesis: Pathways to Success is an initiative of the Ripley County Community Foundation that is dedicated to nurturing local entrepreneurs and enhancing the entrepreneurial spirit within the Southeastern Indiana region to drive economic growth.
If you have any questions about membership prior to joining, feel free to give the Chamber a call at (812) 689-6654 during normal business hours, and we will be happy to assist you.
