Enitiative (the Syracuse Campus-Community Entrepreneurship Initiative) is hosting a video contest open to all students enrolled at Enitiative partner institutions. The contest encourages students to highlight entrepreneurial scholarship in action in Central New York, with the opportunity to win $1,000 in prizes.

Students from Syracuse University, the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry, Morrisville State College, Le Moyne College, Cayuga Community College and Onondaga Community College are invited to participate.

Three prizes of $1,000 will be awarded for the most creative, innovative or informative videos. Video submissions are due Dec. 5. A panel of judges will select the three winners.

Video production and submission guidelines are available on the Web at http://entrepreneurship.syr.edu/video/contest.html. For more information, contact Nick Weber at (315) 443-1186 or mnweber@syr.edu.

Enitiative is funded by a grant from the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation of Kansas City, Mo., focusing on entrepreneurship in the arts, technology, and our neighborhoods. To learn more about Enitiative, visit http://www.enitiative.syr.edu.
