DECA Inc. and the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM) are excited to announce the winners of this year’s FIDM Challenge. The competition tasked students with presenting a new clothing, beauty, home, health, food or entertainment concept in a four-minute video presentation. Participants could spend no more than $25.00 to create a prototype and develop a marketing and distribution strategy.
FIDM executives reviewed all submissions and selected the top four presentations. Each of the top four winning teams will be recognized on stage at the International Career Development Conference this April in Nashville, Tennessee! The teams will also be awarded a travel stipend to attend the conference.
