Submissions are now closed for the 2013 LiON'S LAIR competition. Thank you to everyone who submitted a business plan for consideration.
Over the next few weeks our evaluators will be going through each submission; from the applications received, ten finalists will be selected to pitch their idea to a panel of experts in a television studio environment. The video shorts will then be presented at the LiON'S LAIR Gala at Carmen's Banquet Centre, on October 10, where $100,000 in cash and in-kind prizes will be awarded.
Finalists will be announced sometime in June, so stay tuned!
