$100,000 For Winning Business Plan in Topeka

The Topeka Capital-Journal and six businessmen have launched an entrepreneurship contest designed after Shark Tank, Morgan Chilson wrote.

I am so impressed with this idea, I want to highlight it on my blog.

The Top Tank idea is the brainchild of six Topeka businessmen who partnered with The Topeka Capital-Journal to create a competition designed to highlight the capital city and, specifically, its downtown, Chilson wrote. Five of the businessmen made a financial investment to fund a $100,000 prize to the entrepreneur with the most compelling idea: Brent Boles, managing partner of Schendel Lawn &Landscape; John Dicus, chairman, president and CEO of Capitol Federal Savings Bank; Cody Foster, co-founder of Advisors Excel; Jim Klausman, president and CEO of Midwest Health Inc.; and Mark Ruelle, president and CEO of Westar Energy. Greg Schwerdt, president of Schwerdt Design Group, has offered to work with the final 10 entrepreneurs to help them put together a comprehensive package on their proposals by providing professional design services.

  1. FOREX INVESTMENT I never believed my life will change in such a manner, i saw a review on a page about Mr Carlos signals and strategies and before then i have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because i think i was so wise and never want to be cheated, but when i contacted him and he explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit i can make within a week i was convinced to give a trial and why i risked to invest $500 was because i don't need to send him the money but to create and fund my trading account all by myself and give him the access to manage my trading account and after one week i made a withdrawals of $10,000, please i am very happy to introduce all my friends and family to invest in themselves and there family.
