StartUp@YEA – Where Angels Dare
 
Win angel funding to create your own business

YEA's professed original idea statement was to match entrepreneurs in search of equity to finance the development of their business ideas with individuals who have capital financial assets and managerial experience as well as a disposition to share both with budding entrepreneurs. This will be implemented through a business plan competition.

At the end of a seminar series, entrepreneur finalists selected by a YEA Screening Committee will pitch their business plans to a panel of renown Jordanian entrepreneurs/businessmen and invite them to invest their own money, to help turn an innovative idea into a business reality…from concept to company.

The Idea Model Brief:

• Series of seminars to be delivered by selected successful and inspirational Jordanian businessmen and entrepreneurs.

• Entrepreneurs must attend the seminar series to qualify to compete for start-up Angel Investment.

• Funding will be provided as equity investment from interested speakers.

• Business Plans will be screened by YEA and finalists will receive an overall score from speakers.

• Speakers will be given a share in private limited shareholding company depending on project’s profitability, capital investments needs and risks.

• A YEA Mentor will be assigned to closely work with participant receiving Angel Investment
