Proposal Submission

Teams participating in Round 1 of the 2011-12 Student Technology Innovation Challenge (STIC) are encouraged to e-mail their Business Cases in the format of their choice provided that the printed version not exceed the specified 3-page limit.  Participants are strongly encouraged to follow the described format for their submissions.  
 
Before submitting your Business Proposal, please ensure that your team meets the minimum eligibility requirements (see Eligibility).  In your covering e-mail message, list the names of the team members, relevant student numbers, enrollment status (full or part-time) and title of your Business Case.
 
In terms of format, keep your Business Case to 3-pages maximum.  The organizers strongly recommend you stick to a font size of no less than 10 point and margins no less than .75 inches.  Teams that exceed the 3-page limit risk being disqualified.

Please send your Business Case along with the participant registration and consent form to the Lead Organizer by no later than midnight, November 30th, 2011.
 
All proposals will be acknowledged by e-mail reply.  This will provide you with added re-assurance that your Business Case has indeed been received by the Lead Organizer.  If you do not receive the e-mail acknowledgement, please contact the Lead Organizer as soon as possible.
  • Do not wait until the last minute to submit your Outline by e-mail.  You can submit it now and continue to make changes up until the November 30th deadline.   Submitting it early will enable the organizers to check for formatting problems which you may have overlooked.
  • Please look at your Outline the way it will be printed out for the judges.   You may be surprised about the formatting and want to change it before the deadline.
  • Spell Check!  It is strongly recommended that you review your Outline for spelling errors.  The judges do not like to see careless spelling or grammatical errors.

IMPORTANT NOTE - Submitting Your Proposal
  • All submissions must include information on the team members' names, valid student numbers and enrolment status (full or part-time) along with the participant registration and Consent Form.  This information can be included on a separate page in your proposal (it does not count against the 3-page limit).  You may also put this team information on your e-mail message instead of including it in your actual proposal.
  • All proposal submitted to the STIC will be acknowledged next day by a reply e-mail from the STIC Lead Organizer.
  • You can submit a proposal right up to midnight November 30th, 2011.  
  • Submit your proposal to the STIC
