New Ideas: A Dialogue Project Competition | Duke University

Posted: December 5, 2024


Location: Duke University (Durham, NC)

We're searching for undergraduate students dedicated to exploring the different ways business can be a
force for good in society. Current students in their freshman, sophomore or junior year of a four-year degree
program at a U.S. college or university are invited to share their proposal for how a company, set of
companies or industry sector can have positive impact on a specific community, population, location,
industry or the environment at large.

You are welcome to pick existing companies or industries or present an entrepreneurial idea of your own.
We hope your proposal will highlight any ways in which your idea will contribute to improving civil
discourse and reducing polarization in society.

Important Dates

• The deadline to submit a proposal is January 21, 2025
• Decisions will be released on February 13, 2025
• Grand Prize winners will travel to Duke in Spring 2025

Support

Grand prize winners will participate in an all-expecses paid trip to Duke University to present their proposals to influential business leaders, engage in professional development programming, and network with members of the community. Winners who apply to and are admitted to a one-year Master’s program at the Fuqua School of Business will also receive some scholarship funding.
