The goal of the competition is to encourage encourage more entrepreneurism in the Palmetto State by offering residents cash awards, mentoring and feedback.
“The pandemic years have been some of the most challenging for business-minded people, yet many of the those who came out better and stronger were people who reinvented themselves through an entrepreneurial endeavor,” said Weir. “This is a perfect opportunity to dream big, be creative and take that first big step needed to launch that new endeavor.”
Interested parties may apply online until May 15 to be considered for one of three prizes, funded by Weir. Winners will be chosen by a panel of judges and the prizes include:

The winners, who will be announced in October, will also receive personal mentorship from Weir. The first prize winner will also receive six months of free office space in Weir’s Greenville headquarters.
