ANY INVENTION OR BUSINESS CONCEPT IS WELCOME Needing a lifeline, The Idea Tank for Kids received a new lease when Illinois’ stay-at-home order was instituted in March. The previously in-person entrepreneur contest for Illinois kids ages 8-13 came back to life as a digital event aiming to reward great business ideas with a grand prize of $1,000. Any invention or business concept is eligible, from a germ of an idea to a prototype of a product. Contestants will be judged by a panel of Illinois ‘sharks’ including successful executives and entrepreneurs. The deadline to enter is June 25, with a fun “Shark Tank”-like finale for the top 20 submissions to be held online June 30th via video conference. IDEA Tank for Kids 2020 is the biggest entrepreneurship competition for Illinois kids age 8-13! While it usually takes place in person, we have turned Idea Tank for Kids 2020 into the first AT HOME entrepreneurship competition for kids . Kids will create and pitch their ideas from home and submit them online. The top 20 finalists will pitch to a panel of Judges on June 30, 2020 at 3PM CT for a grand prize of $1,000! Photograph: 2019 Finalist Helena Martinez LEARN MORE
