The Piramal Prize is an entrepreneurship challenge that encourages and enables business ideas that democratize healthcare. The competition asks for bold and creative innovations, will help you develop a business plan, and invests in viable new ideas.
The 2008 Piramal Prize evaluation process involves three stages, culminating in a finalist workshop and selection weekend in May 2008. Finalists will have a chance to work closely with a mentor, network with potential investors, and make a final presentation to the Piramal Prize Selection Committee. The winner of the 2008 Piramal Prize will be announced at the end of the weekend.
