​We are excited to launch our annual ILF + NCAAC entrepreneurship contest! This year, contestants will explore how local U.S. companies can adapt and thrive under the pressure of global tariffs, under the theme: “Great Challenges Require Greater Solutions.”

​

Through this contest, applicants will:
✅ Analyze and present strategies that help American businesses succeed in a tariff-driven economy
✅ Work alongside professionals and mentors
✅ Develop leadership, teamwork, and communication skills
✅ Build strong professional networks
✅ Make a meaningful impact in their community

​

This is more than just an contest;  it’s an opportunity to learn, grow, and prepare for a successful future. Whether you're a student looking to gain experience or a young professional eager to develop your skills, this opportunity is for you!
