Is the opportunity practical for a student team to accomplish and near-term space enabling?
6 General Information: The competition is intended to simulate the real world process of entrepreneurs soliciting start up funds from early stage investors and venture capital firms. The judges function as venture capital investors deciding on which business venture they would most likely fund. The quality of the idea, the strength of the management team, and the clarity and persuasiveness of the written plan and oral presentation, all influence the judge s decisions. Ultimately, the winning team should be the team in which the judges would most likely invest their money. Most of the judges come from the investment community or have created their own startup venture. Their ranking of the top teams is guided by the scorecard but should be consistent with the approach that would be used by investors. We recognize that consistent with real life investment situations real life investment situations, early stage companies can be in very different stages of development. To compensate for this, we would expect that an early stage investor would require this potential for higher investment returns for an earlier stage company, which has a higher level of risk involved. We assume, in general, that this would be true for the judges in the NewSpace Business Plan Competition. Teams are not required to reveal the exact desired terms of the deal (i.e., their proposed company valuation and percentage of company being offered to investors). However, some investors prefer to have this information upfront (while some investors feel it is not as important until later).we recommend that teams be prepared to address questions about their terms, but it is up to the team to decide how they want to answer these questions. During the competition, judges are asked to evaluate each team individually and should not discuss their evaluation with other judges until all judges evaluation forms have been submitted.
