The PETE Prize for Entrepreneurs is an FIT DTech Lab, jury-selected merit award competition. The award recognizes excellence in the development of fresh, insightful and creative concepts. We celebrate ideas that can be successfully translated into execution focused plans and those which leverage innovative, design-oriented thinking.
PETE exemplifies the core characteristics (passion, empathy, tenacity, enthusiasm) that can revolutionize business by challenging norms and putting forth brave new ideas. If you believe you have the vision to make the world a better place by being an innovative leader, the PETE Prize is for you.
The PETE Prize is more than just another award. Selected applicants participate in several months of clinics, workshops, and knowledge sharing by established venture capitalists, industry leaders and mentors - an excellent learning experience for FIT students resulting in financing for a new business idea as well as office space to establish the base of operations and plan their enterprise launch.
