It's Big Bang Season! If you want to give life to a clean tech idea, a great way to do that is to find a team and enter UCD's Big Bang Business Plan Competition. Contest rules require it be a new idea. There are limits on how much money could already have been raised. The rules have been changed to eliminate the requirement to a team member with a direct connection to UCD. Big Bang is now open to the entire community!
