Tomorrow, the Sam M. Walton College of Business will host the Heartland Challenge Startup Expo at the Scott Family Amazeum from 6-7p. 

  • The competition: The Startup Expo is the public showcase for the 12 teams from across North America competing in the third annual Heartland Challenge, a global student startup competition designed to simulate the process of raising venture capital for a high-growth enterprise. 
  • The stakes: The Expo winner will receive a $5,000 cash prize decided by an audience vote. Free appetizers will be provided. These teams are solving a vast array of community problems, from advancing brain cancer diagnostics with same-day genetic sequencing to improving the environment with an eco-friendly baby bottle.
