A $5,000 prize is also awarded to a student founder or team. Participants in the Olin Cup are coached and mentored by regional entrepreneurs and advisors as they hone their business plans and pitches throughout the different stages of the competition. The Skandalaris Center for Entrepreneurial Studies manages the competition.
