Youth Business Development (YBD) Competition 2007

Launched by the Oxford MBA and MFE Classes of 2005-2006, YBD is a global competition for entrepreneurial young people, aged 16-21. The initiative is supported by the Oxford Business Network for Social Entrepreneurship, which brings together social entrepreneurs from the University of Oxford and our extended academic and business communities. YBD delivers critical value to its competitors by connecting them to the intellectual capital and personal networks which the international Oxford MBA and MFE networks have to offer.

The competition kicks off with teams submitting their initial "business ideas". With the support of Oxford management students, the best ideas will then be developed by the teams into business plans and submitted for the opportunity to win funding.

If you are a young person interested in social enterprise and/or with a taste for doing something new and innovative, then see our Competition Guidelines and Info page to see how to get involved and for answers to Frequently Asked Questions click here.

For those teams which clearly demonstrate they are ready to put capital to social and economic use, YBD aims to provide the appropriate seed capital and follow on support. We seek to pair other worthy teams with ongoing support from current or past MBA students.

For this, our second annual competition, YBD has a prize money fund of £2000 available for distribution.

Please note the first round deadline is 31st March 2007
