Introduction

TIC Americas presents awards as an international business competition and entrepreneur accelerator for young people. TIC Americas differentiates itself from other existing business plan competitions by incorporating a prototype phase, training, investment, internships, among other opportunities at a global scale.

TIC Americas has two phases:
    1. Online Semi-Finals where competitors complete their concept paper, business plan – including a market study, a website, and promotional video. A BOOT (Business Opportunity On-line Training) makes available resources to participants in training, mentorship, and other online information. 2. On-site Finals where young entrepreneurs make their “pitch” for a TIC Americas award in person and have the opportunity to showcase and advertise their product in an international event prior to the XL OAS General Assembly in Peru.
