The Macklin Business Institute (MBI), 海角社区 Enactus, and the Rockville Business program are excited to present the 13th Raptor Tank Business Competition. The competition was created as an MBI initiative to help MC students start or grow a business, while bringing together students with mentors and judges from the college and local community in a business challenge.

This fall, over 30 students representing all three MC campuses completed all required course materials and pitched their ideas in front of a panel of faculty judges during our preliminary round. Six of the business ideas made it to the final round—the Raptor Tank Business Pitch Competition. The finalists competed in front of a live audience to earn a portion of the $5,000 in seed money, which is provided by the student-run MBI Café.

Congratulations to the finalists and winners.
