Big Idea Competition

Got a business idea? You've got 60 seconds. We've got $1,000.
The Rexburg Big Idea Competition is back. Pitch your business idea to our panel of judges in just 60 seconds — then handle 90 seconds of Q&A — for a shot at:

• 1st Place — $500
• 2nd Place — $300
• 3rd Place — $200

Whether you win or not, every pitcher walks away with personalized written feedback from our judges. That's worth more than the prize money.
You'll be judged on:
• Problem clarity — Is this a real problem worth solving?
• Solution fit — Does your idea actually solve it?
• Market awareness — Who pays for this, and why?
• Coachability — How do you handle tough questions?
Open to everyone — students, community members, first-timers, and serial idea-havers. No slides required. No business required. Just an idea and 60 seconds of courage.
